Plow CQR Boat Anchor Sizing Chart
Cons: Hinged design can make stowage awkward. "No such thing as a small Plow/CQR".
Bottoms: Performs well in most bottoms; Struggles in rock.
The chart below lists the recommended Plow/CQR Anchor Size for various lengths of boats. The anchor sizing chart below assumes average boat characteristics in average anchoring conditions. If you have an exceptionally heavy boat or are anchoring in exceptional conditions (typically greater than Gale force winds) you may consider going up one size of anchor or larger.
