    A box anchor.

    You should be fine with the small. They are $$$$ but they are the best.

    Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity. Albert Einstein

          Perfect. Thanks for the help. Order direct or do I have to find a dealer?

            You can order direct from the web pae or go through SPBFAN ( a member on tigeowners) but the only problem might be the shipping to Canada. I'm sure he can get you a better price but the whole shipping thing comes into play. Check out any local boat shops they should have them, that might be your best bet.

              Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

                    Make sure you have a good place to store it... I hate having that thing in my boat! Looks like a bear trap!
                    If its not fun, Why do it?

                      Mine fits in the storage behind the drivers seat under the cushion. Tight fit but it gets in there.

                          Box anchor all the way - I bought something else and regret it every time I have to throw my anchor. Our Tige dealer stocks the box anchors.

                            Depends what you mean by the best. The box probably holds the best for the weight and size. It also folds down nicely and you don't have to use a chain, nor as much line to set it.

                            But after seeing the price of a box, I went with a plain Jane #8 lb. anchor, chain, and rope for way less than just the Box. I don't throw anchor all that often, but every time I do it has worked great. With the economy the way it is, I would rather save that money and spend it on gas or launch fees.

                              West Marine carries them as well. I was just in the Antioch, CA store and they had the small non chrome one for 149. I didn't buy it but I am seriously considering it based on everyones recommendations.
