I have wanted an anchor for the yard for quite a while,when I was in Tavares last week John from shipwreck salvage gave me a number to call in New Orleans of a ship yard that had 100 to pick from,,I called him Monday and he said ya come on and pick one out, 9hrs out of my path I was there,, he had anchors but all newer style,,except for 2,, they are 10-12 ft tall and 7-8ft wide and weigh 3500lbs each,I figured if I had to ship 1 might as well buy both,so now I have 1 for each end,,when done with idea I will post pic,I will only use 1 probable Bill
