    New Generation Anchor

    Does anybody here have any experience with the new rollbar anchors. Or an opinion about them?

    The Beugal, used primaryly in the Med for a couple years now.

    The Manson Supreme, from a New Zealand anchor maker of all types. The Supreme has a strange "dual shank" which is supposed to allow you to pull the anchor out of coral or rock by sliding the scackle down toward the blade. But the sharpened point will get it to cut into weed and do that way better than a Bruce. And the spoon shape of the blade is supposed to hold and dig in deeper than a plow or Delta. And the clean design will less likely get fouled like the danforth. 'They say.' A small boat like the Ariel might be interested in one anchor that does it all: mud, sand, gravel, grass, rock. coral.

    The Rocna, an upstart version of the Manson with a plain shank.
