How heavy is this anchor, I mean is it just as heavy as the box Anchor? And I see you only have one size, so up to what size boat will this anchor work on and are they going to make any galvanized?

Looks like it could do a better job holding your boat than the box anchor. Do you know the cost?
dam i just mastered throwing my box anchor and now this :cry:
nice looking anchor. looks like it will work good
It weighs 19 LBS. We've successfully used this anchor up to a 33 Formula which weighs roughly 10,000 lbs. We've looked at galvy coatings, and I wasn't impressed with the result. The key to this anchor was to have something that is safe to handle and easy to use. With the anchor locked in the closed position, it's a cinch to handle. It's a great piece. Our market testing included ten avid boaters that have used several different types of anchors over the years, and they all loved them.
$240 for stainless.....is that polished stainless??? I'm all about the bling when it comes to my anchor!
Will there be a smaller size for say, 19-25' boats?

No, it's not polished. We made a stainless version to offer the offshore guys a bullet proof anchor. The anchor isn't that big, that's what's nice about it, one size fits most. We have a product video on this anchor, I'm currently trying to figure out how to upload it for you guys.
I was about to make a light weight billet one becuase of the weight, now i can put the project on the shelf.
Here's the product video we did on the new anchor,
