Breakaway Anchor

[John Jones]

Just thought I would toss this in.  Fishing wrecks and reefs it's easy to hang up an anchor.  I have not lost one yet but I have been with friends when they ended up breaking off an expensive Danforth or one of those dumb plow anchors with the float on the top (HydroBubble ??).  I stumbled across this setup on the web somewhere about 4 years ago.  This is my version.  It has saved my anchor several times.  Keep an eye on the zip ties because if they are broken when you try to set the anchor it will never set.
