I like it. I didn't care for them back when because of their reputation in anchors tests. But i finally realized that they do the best in mud, which is what we have here in the chesapeake region and a lot of the icw. And when they turn direction with the tide they do better at re setting than the cqr or danforth, altho the danforth gets the best marks for straight away strength, like for a storm anchor. There are newer high priced anchors that tout performance features but i know nothing about them. I'm very happy with the (relatively inexpensive) #33 Lewmar claw and a 22# danforth for storms/currents. Make sure the weight is appropriate for your displacement and a use reasonable amount of chain (i think they say 6' min).
