Anchor for French Polynesia

Hello, have a HR46 (40,000 pounds) with 75Lbs CQR; would you replace it with a heavier Bruce or Delta? Will sail to French Polynesia next year…Thanks for your advice, Giorgio

Hi Giorgio: I think I would go with the largest Bruce – 50 kg. Much better holding in thin sand over coral. – Steve

(Correction: This Q&A answer originally said Delta – it has been corrected to say Bruce. Sorry for any confusion. – SetSail)
