Best Boat Anchors, Bruce, Danforth, Delta, and Plow
The Best Boat Anchors

Captain Cody walks around the marina showing examples of anchors people use on different style boats. Popular anchors include the following.
Bruce anchor or claw anchor is the same anchor design. The claw is just the generic name for the anchor. This is the best anchor in my opinion for any type of bottom or size of boat.
The CQR or Plow anchor is popular on sailboats. This anchor has great holding strength which is important when you are consistently anchoring up for the night and going to sleep.
The delta or wing anchor is great when anchoring in any bottom. It is popular with boats ranging from 20-50 feet.
The Danforth or Fluke anchor is popular with small boats under 20 feet in length. You will see in this video people use them for large boats as well. This is an anchor that is low cost and works good in soft bottoms such as sand, mud or clay. It does not work good on rocky bottoms and will get stuck and break. The anchor also tends to drift as it is falling which can make anchoring at deep depths difficult.
I hope this video helps you select the best boat anchor.
Thanks for watching,
Captain Cody
