Hmmm:

Seeing a new market here !!!! LOL

The one I took the pic of is my first "prototype".
I found it was a bit too heavy and if more than 2 tines caught
well it was a B#@%H to get out, my 20 fter with 175 was yanking it like crazy to get it out.

I went to a thinner rod diameter and it works great, and comes out easier, I can even bend it back by hand.

You would be surprised how well they hold. I throw it towards the rockpile, take up slack till it sets and tie it off. sometimes it may break free, then just re-throw it.

Like I said the best thing about it, that also makes it kinda expensive is the stainless construction.

They are not easy to make either, plus the welding is not as easy as welding steel.

I have another one for this season which should be matched perfectly for my size boat.

You guys got me thinking now.........

But how many people actually get that close to the rocks and feel the need for a positoining acnchor ?? Other than us !!!

Just say the website, that Mighty mike looks good, and aluminum should hold up well to corrosion. !!

See,,, its already been done.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
