    I wouldn't worry too much, being a Sarca you probably won't own it long anyway.

    Agree, and if you have a few extra dollars to spend, buy a Manson plough.

    Yeah a mate of mine runs a Manson plough on his 18 cat rates it very highly. My 16 tripped plough is doing the job just fine tho but if i donate it to the bottom a Manson may be on the cards. I have 8m of closelink chain so it hooks up very well but is a bit heavy to retrieve but its a small sacrifice.

    And you must trip the plough anchor or you will lose it quickly to the reef. I use 1 10mm cabletie it breaks 50% of the time when running it off so its a perfect balance. Never once has it broken while anchored up and ive been running this way for a long time. Cheers
