But no matter the answer provided to your question, there will be people who disagree. I am not experienced enough to say any are better than any other. My history has seen Bruce and Danforth on 18 to 25 foot boats. the Bruce is a nice anchor, since there aren't any moving parts Each type seems to hold better in some ways and bottom types than the other. If you don't like the danforth, try a bruce, it may be the anchor "for you" 1987 Outrage 18 W/150 Merc and 8 Honda
