This isn't a sound test...the conditions for each anchor are different, specifically drag angle and chain interference. 5 of the competitors anchors are stuck on the chain to the following anchor. If you anchor with multiple anchors on one chain you will have this problem and you probably shouldn't be a captain. Additionally, anchors aren't of a similar weight. An anchor 2 lbs heavier (18% in the test case) should perform better. Now test them one at a time, measure the tension in the chain when the anchor drags, the time to set, and do it in water....now there's a valid test...just say'n. Descent anchor for the price point though.
He IS Mantus. Every single Mantus "test" video is as pathetic and idiotic as this one. He should call them Doofus Anchors, because only a doofus would swallow such shit and ever buy one.
I'm only going to add what others have but the other anchors can be seen to be trying to dig into the chain, which obviously will not work. Unfair test.
OHFORPEATSAKES CQR, Delta, Fortress, claw/Bruce anchors have been tested many times individually on hard compacted sand and they have a tendency to fail in this substrate which is why Mantus picked these lower quality anchors. I would like to see the ultra tested on hard sand versus mantus on individual chains as the ultra anchor is normally a very good anchor. The real bias in this test is they did not use a rocna on the other chain. It is the shape and aggressive sharp fluke of the mantus that makes it a superior anchor in this test.
It is video the anchor does not work, pass it in slow motion, the ultra anchor starts first than the others in logic that you tilt the crossbar in your favor
What a bullshit test ... put the Mantus into the row with the other anchors and put one out of it into the single chain and you will see the Mantus will not work but the other single one. 🤦♂️
Such a poor test! I have a Bruce and I know it sets quickly. This video shows a string of anchors against one on its own and suprise suprise it's the mantus! Not much of a fair test is it, especially as all the anchors in the string are designed for single anchor only!!! Big thumbs down from me! Shame was looking for a larger storm back up and liked the take apart aspect. Do a fair video and I may purchase one!!
Real sailors lower the anchor deeper from the shore and dig the anchor towards the land, when the anchor digs in and stops the ship you can sleep peacefully. This anchoring of yours down the coast is a mockery of seamanship. Leave the sailing and fish from the shore, sailing is not for you. Stupid test.
This test is so clearly biased that I will now avoid buying a mantus anchor at all costs.
Exactly, When a manufacturer has to result to this kind of scam tests, it's obviously a scam product
@@LadyDewBuild This isn't a test. This is an excersize in dragging anchors down a beach, for no other reson than to do it.
@@Useitorloseit1 Yup

Kinda silly, even
This video sould be named "how to blow-up a good idea and make people think that you scamming them"
He must be on the Pay roll for Mantus.
There's a mantus stamp in the bottom right corner

Well, now I know what anchor works best to hold my F-350 in storm conditions!
This is a bogus test. Have the truck 20' in the air and then try dragging the various anchors again - guaranteed different results.
Need to do 1 at a time with a load cell or lbs scale to really see which holds more weight before pulling out of the sand.
One at a time, this is not a decent test.

Are you serious? This video does not help boat owners to make a serious choice.
I know what hook I'll use next time I need to anchor in dry sand. Thanks.

I thought this video would have 0 comments and I was just going to mention that's not a 1:1 test... I've been beaten to the punch 43 times already
Terrible test
this why tandom anchoring is a bad idea. stupid test

Ridiculous test!
Seriously!!! What a joke of a text.

Obviously cause of the long chain🥴
the other anchors rest on the chain and cannot penetrate.
false test
Keep driving a little further
Total bs
Terrible test you need to test 1 anchor at The time. If you have all of them on one road you dont get the lift of the chain or the right momentum
other anchors can not get the angle to dig in because of biased set up. disregard this video if you are in search of anchor.
because other anchors acting like kets, must dig faster ...no reason to fail...
Cheating !
Hah Hah 😂good one!
useless test
Malísimo !!!! Ni Serca de ser una prueba confiable , un total insulto a la gente,
bollocks
nonsense
Dumb music always means lame video. Like always.
