2 FREE NEW 45 lbs. Delta Anchors
2 FREE NEW 45 lbs. Delta Anchors.
They came with my new boat, but I took them off in the first 10 minutes.
Tried a few time to sell them on e-bay, but apparently no one uses these POS anchors anymore.
Legal Note: For safety to life and vessel, please do not use these to anchor your boat, EVER.
Possible uses:
1) To hold down the tarp on your wood pile.
2) To hold your mail box.
3) To pull behind your yard tractor and till for a garden.
4) Throw in the back of your pick-up truck to add weight over the winter months.

LOL! So tell us how you really feel about these anchors... :-)

Re: 2 FREE NEW 45 lbs. Delta Anchors
I know you're being facetious but just in case I'll claim them if they're within the driving distance from MA or you'll pick up the postage.

Re: 2 FREE NEW 45 lbs. Delta Anchors
Not sure what your beef is? 
Sailed with a Delta on the bow for 10 years. Good anchor, kept me in place and set easy.
Switched to a Rocna when they came out in 2007: The Rocna was better at everything so I could go down 10 lbs in size but slept good with the Delta on the bottom.

Shipping them would be like throwing your money off the back of your boat when your offshore in a gale.

It would be worth it to me as I would very much like to include a Delta in my anchor testing.

Can I just drop it at a UPS store with your address and let them send it to you?
With a local CF member just coming to my house to pick 1 of these up is wasting more money than they are worth.

Yes, UPS should be able to handle it, no problem.
I have received test anchors that were shipped with only a wrapping of cardboard and tape - no box. Easy Peezy.
I'll p.m. my info.
