Re: Anchor for 43’ Leopard

we have 12m tasman cat (7.5mt) and use a SARCA excel # 5 (22kg).

full time live-aboard so spend lots of time at anchor in all sorts of conditions, and could not be happier with the anchor

(nb : we have much less windage than some of the condo-cats)

cheers,

If you applied the Rocna sizing chart to your vessel the recommendation would be the Rocna Vulcan 25 - so being a similar style anchor you should be ok.
