Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Steve Goodwin tested a 46-pound Ultra anchor in the soft mud of Scout Bay using his vessel, Panope.0:03 The test utilized a 5/16-inch all-chain rode with a 25-foot vertical distance from the bow roller to the seafloor.1:39 At 3:1 scope, the Ultra held 420 pounds of reverse thrust and remained stable while moving at 2.3 knots under 680 pounds of maximum thrust.1:55 Increasing the scope to 4:1 and 5:1 improved holding power to 470 and 540 pounds, respectively.3:21 In 180-degree reset tests, the Ultra performed perfectly, matching the reliability of the Viking, Ragnar Mark II, and steel Danforth anchors.4:14 While the Ultra demonstrated superior stability among non-rollbar anchors, it yielded lower holding power in soft mud compared to rollbar models like the Mantis M1.5:05 The anchor’s stainless steel construction raises potential concerns regarding crevice corrosion for long-term, stationary liveaboards, though the high purchase price remains the primary deterrent for most users.6:59
