I know most are fans of the Rocna anchor, but how about some love for a Mantus?
On first attempt, the tip of the anchor would hit the bow guard on retrieval, so I had some holes drilled in the pivoting section to push it out further from the boat. Success. But now, since the fulcrum of the pivoting section is further aft, the pivoting motion is very rapid and not as "gentle", and bangs and would I wince. My plan is to leave the pivoting section in the deployed position, I don't mind how it looks. Might have a shim made up to fill the gap behind the fulcrum.
