Manta Anchor

[KG]

Anyone have or used a "Manta" Anchor?

I guess nobody has? It is very similar to a Delta or plow type, just a fraction of the cost. I will be trying one out this weekend and will let you all know how they work.....$50 for the thing, maybe a good buy??

I dont know and you deserve a reply.
I would look the company's history, metal used and production methods.

I remember buying JBL speakers before they were sold, re-sold, etc b/c they were well built by craftsmen, used HQ wood and speakers, and used in recording studios but at the time, used little or no advertising b/c the customers word of mouth sold them and bullet proof connected ti dual Phase Linear amps but that was yrs ago
Sorry off on a tangent

Huh SailBrent??
The anchor is great in soft botttom, used it in a 1.5kt river current and it held fine. I am not sure about the hard bottoms, may be "iffy".

I'll be sure to ask SailBrent about stereo speakers though??

I meant the Manta Anchor is a Bruce knockoff and have not seen one. The original Bruce anchors were designed for North sea oil rigs.
To me without seeing it in person and inspect the quality appears will work well in sand despite waves and wind and costs 1/5th the cost of a Bruce.
