Submitted by mandolorian on Fri, 2021-06-18 16:46
Hi Guys, has anyone used or using a SARCA anchor on their boat. Especially have they been used in reef and are they as good as i am reading about them. Just want some advice from someone who has used one on reef. Cheers all.

I've been using one for
I've been using one for years and definitely my preference of anchor.
But be aware, it is still possible to snag up on reef bottom, I've never got mine stuck, but a mate had to cut the rope and leave his SARCA on the bottom because he couldn't get it free.

I was fishing in the bar
I was fishing in the bar flats in Denham and dropped the pick a couple of times in ground where we were pinging rigs left, right and centre and pulled up up no worries
