Manson Supreme Rock Slot - Part 1
Due to questions about the Rocna I am looking more closely at the Manson Supreme but have questions also about the Manson, specifically the Rock Slot.

There appear to be two issues with the Rock Slot. First can the design possibly cause the anchor to trip inadvertently if the boat shifts 180 degrees. Second, does the wide shank of the Rock Slot design fit on your boat, roller, etc?

So, Question 1.

Do you like the theory and design of the Rock Slot or not? Feel free to elaborate. Do you think it could cause the anchor to trip, do you think it will really help retrieve a stuck anchor, any other questions or concerns.

Question 2

Will the wide shank of the Manson fit your boat?
