Has anyone fitted an Ultra Anchor to a 410? What are your thoughts good and bad.

will the Ultra Anchor fit under the Glasfibre bowsprit? 

any advice very welcome thank you.

Not sure, but this is a very expensive anchor compared to others I just looked at.

It looks nice, but it is just an anchor.    Not sure if it performs better than others.

Hi Adrian

I can't offer advice on the fitting, but you could ask them to supply a template ( I know Rocna do)

You can buy direct from the makers and they will give a free swivel with any Ultra Anchor.

Good luck, do let the forum know how it works out.

Thank you, there are very many good reviews for the Ultra anchor.

there are many anchors but if this gives me peace of mind then happy to pay the extra. The Delta I have as fitted by factory has failed to “bite” after the usual anchoring process, so many times here in Greece where the extra depth is sometimes required. By the way I also have 80 meters of chain and try not to leave it onboard when anchoring. Most of the time it’s around 50 meters laid out.

Yes we also sail in Greece and used to have a Delta, but upgraded that to a Rocnor a few years ago, which is miles better.  Would go for the Ultra if I could afford it. Malcolm

Hi Adrian,
i am using Ultra since 8 years and I am really happy with it. In my previous boat a Jeanneau53 I had Delta and Ultra is way better then delta.

Thank you for the information Mehmat.

information update

i found that the UA21 will fit below the bowsprit and as I have a 10mm chain I will also use the UFS10-35 swivel. 

Delivery to Greece.

Thanks for the information Malcolm, maybe we will cross anchors one day! We are based in Lefcas marina.
