Overton's was extremely responsive
The staff at Overton's went overboard to make sure this product and the order arrived on time and fixed a mixup that could have been a big problem. Thank you Overton!

Staying power...;)
If you have never used this type of anchor before, plan on spending a few extra minutes learning how to get it to release for retrieval. No complaints on holding power, or ease of deploying. The kit that Overton's has assembled takes any guess work out of the purchasing process for newbs. Just be sure you learn how to use it before you drop it off into 30' of murky water! :)

Will this anchor fit in the Yamaha AR195 19ft boot locker? They say their anchor is specially made to fit the locker.
Unfortunately we do not have that boot locker specs available to us.

will this item work or compatible w/ a 2010 Hurricane Deck Boat?
I have the #13 on a 2008 Hurricaine deck boat...measure the width of the rubber brackets in the bow anchor locker to be sure the Stock Width
of the #9 at 18-1/4" will fit. The #13 has more hold power and may be a better choice.

Is the anchor line thimble made of stainless steel? Even galvanized seems to corrode quickly in salt water.
The thimble is galvanized, not stainless steel.

OK - Looking at the first commenter - what is the proper way to release this anchor? Looks like if you pull it backwards it will try to tip upwards, but if the flukes are stuck into the mud - it may not want to tip upwards to release.
If the flukes are stuck:
Power up to the anchor and position the boat straight over the anchor---pulling the anchor straight up should break it free. You can even use the buoyancy of the boat to apply pressure to the anchor to aid in retrieval . If anchor is stuck, then slowly turn your boat in a circle under power to apply pressure from different sides to release the anchor.

Will this one work with Windless?
I guess it could depend on which model windless.
