Re: 45' Leopard Catamaran Delta anchor power set rpms

Of course it is your boat, so it is your choice, but I think you are too easily accepting limitations that should not and need not exist.

I've got the Leopard 50 and from factory it came with the same 25kg Delta. Almost all of us L50 owners change that for something much more capable, in my case I did as many have said here and just swapped it out for a larger Rocna without having to do any modifications to the boat. Been a great anchor. Took me and my friends about 45 mins of mucking around to get it done (had to get a much larger swivel as well)

Re: 45' Leopard Catamaran Delta anchor power set rpms

RPM is short-hand for 'revolutions per minute'... the number of spins each sixty seconds.
Used in a sentence:
* A balance of economy and power for our Cummins 505ci occurs at 1,825RPM.
.
Help me out here.
I am begging you.
Your "rpm's" is frying my tiny brains.
