rig a danforth anchor break-away OR just dont store said rusty anchor on the boat and you wont get rust stains.

good grapnels are usually made of re-bar NOT stainless so they can be bent and re-bent when it gets hung IMHO. also, make sure it is heavy, otherwise with a 26ft boat it will never get down fast enough for you to anchor accurately!
