My 2 cents with all respect based on 23 years live aboard/ cruising, with 37 sail and 42 trawler, found that a 25# herresoft worked in soft mud even better than 45# northhill with a very slow pull to set. Also I have seen danforth and CQR skip along the bottom- sometimes up side down because the initial pull was too fast and never set. Thanks for the video.
The fortress you mentioned didn't reset because it was upside down. But, there is no upside down on this anchor as it sets either way. It is not supposed the trow in with a lot of chain. 3 or 4 meter chain is enough, followed with rope. Thank you for testing. Great work
