But this still doesn't mean that a 7 pound Fortress is appropriate as the only
anchor for a 30 foot cruiser.


It sure as hell isn't, then again Loco isn't appropraite for being at the helm
of a 30 foot boat either.
The Fortress is a good anchor. My buddy uses one now on his J29, but it's
bigger than Loco's. Of course my buddy has been sailing boats for 25 years and
knows how to choose the right sized anchor.
