I’ve tested the 25kg Delta being fine in the Meds (Italy & Croatia) But it did not hold well when back in Finland, propably due to the fact that the bottom is usually light mud here. I replacd it with a 32 kg Rocna Vulcan which did a better job. But, theres a big but, it did not hold well enough. It dragged several times, maybe due to that soft mud botttom. Who knows!

Then I bought the Ultra anchor and it has been the best choice for an anchor so far. It digs in immediately and holds very well. In every place our previous anchors failed. So it is a good product. Our boat is a S&S Swan 431, 15.000kg when loaded.
