Fortress FX-55

Nearly new FX55 anchor in excellent condition for sale or trade.

I'm located in New Orleans LA. I got this anchor from a cousin who used it briefly after the BP oil spill to anchor a buoy. This is the only thing it has ever been used for.

I'd like to keep it but it is just too large for our boat. I'd like to trade down for a smaller fortress or danforth to meet the needs of our boat and maybe some cash or other goodies.

Open to other ideas. Tell me whatcha got.

Break it down, it's ship-able.

How much?

I figure retail is 650. This thing is practically new. 400 + shipping?

Yeah, I figure if we don't sell it we'll just break it down and store it someplace for a bad day. But it really is huge for our boat. And I'm a bib anchor guy with a 60lb boss.
