Trying to figure out size for stern anchor, I came across a thread comparing Fortress and new generation anchors (Mantus, Rocna, etc.). One thing I hadn't really considered while testing was how much swinging I was doing (not THAT swinging, Noreast) and that some anchors might have trouble keeping a set or resetting. In neither place was this an issue (though, as mentioned above, I swung a lot in the first test--easily 180°--but not as much in the second--45° or so).
