I had a difficult time staying above the anchor so some of the video misses the anchor sitting on the seafloor as the vessels pays out anchor rode to increase scope before setting. The video shows how the Ultra anchor hits the seafloor and then how it reacts when the vessel backs down to set the anchor. This shows that the stainless steel anchor penetrates into the grasses immediately and develops holding power. The sharp point penetrates deep. This is a 12KG/ 26 pound Ultra Anchor in about 10 to 12 feet of water. A heavier Ultra Anchor penetrates deeper into the grass. This was taken off a small Island off Turgutreis, Turkey (near Bodrum). This video is long and unedited.
