I just bought an '01 , 75' MY. Came with 300' of 3/8" chain. And a bent ( no surprise there) 60 lb Danforth . ( Yes. Really.)


My question:


I want to put the best anchor for Bahamas and South Florida I can. I have read the prior threads and I appreciated all the input. Am impressed with Fortress performance in tests I have read.

But I just wonder how you determine the largest heaviest anchor ( FX125?) that will fit on the existing bow pulpit.

Trial and error ? Or is there a measurement method?
