If you want to spend some coin and get a great anchor the Fortress anchors are the shit in my opinion. We have a few on the 40 Ocean you see in my avatar. Been using it for years and it always grabs and holds. We have one that is beat up from using it in the reefs and another that we use only for anchoring on overnights. Good thing is the parts are guaranteed for life. If you break any part you can send it back and they will replace it free. They are expensive but worth it in my opinion, especially if you sleep on the boat on the hook. Last season the plow on my Parker dragged twice during the night. This year I have a fortress but I won't use it to anchor in the reefs, I have enough old ones for that. They also have a Guardian series that is a little less expensive.
