[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 152429, member: 337"] That Box Anchor is awesome. hand stabbing the manual anchors is going to suck. I have both types - manual and Talon. You'll need 16' of rod minimum to anchor in same depth of water as a 12' Talon. Unless your buddy holds your head two feet under while you push it in. Plus - the Talon attempts to hold its rod vertical - a necessary feature for staying anchored. The rope loops on manuals only pull at the very top of the flexy rod - so as your boat drifts it will start pulling UP just as much as LATERALLY... pulling the rod out quickly (losing anchor hold). i predict you will be pissed and disappointed with hand stabbing. me? I'd sell my Terrova before I sold my Talon. [/QUOTE]
