Pontoon Anchor?

[ozzie]

My father recently purchased a 23' pontoon and he needs an anchor....What would be a good anchor for this size/type of boat?

A 15# Digger Anchor will serve him well. Add a "Deuce" Drop-N-Stay, and he will be golden in all conditions he is likely to want to be out in fishing.

I'm not really sure how to link to another thread, but here's the address for a similar situation

I have a similar boat and was using a mushroom anchor, about 18-20 lbs with a galvanized chain on it. Sucker was a bear to pull up. I bought an electric winch but haven't hooked that up yet. I might be a wimp but it hopefully won't put as much strain on the arms and back this way. I don't need another surgery!
