Steve Goodwin evaluates the 2020 45-pound Mantus M1 anchor, identifying six design improvements over the 2015 model.1:08 The redesigned shank shape now allows the anchor to self-launch from a bow roller without manual assistance.1:59 The shank width increased from three inches to three and three-quarters inches, improving the structural proportions.2:19 The anchor’s actual weight increased from 40 pounds to 43 pounds, aligning more closely with the 45-pound specification.3:14 The toe doubler now features a scalloped edge rather than a straight one, which eliminates a stress riser and increases the strength of the fluke.4:33 Additionally, the manufacturer chamfered the plate edges to improve galvanizing durability and included correctly sized assembly bolts.5:22 The anchor retains its 50% tip-to-total-weight ratio, which remains the highest among anchors tested by the reviewer.7:10 These modifications address previous criticisms regarding aesthetics, manufacturing tolerances, and structural stress points while maintaining the anchor's established setting performance.
