Custom made Sea Anchor, took me a while!

Over the years of bottom bouncing i've never been really happy with the sea anchors i've used. I tried the cheap tarp material type, the parachute material type and the very expense ones also with average performance. Some didn't last long and well some just didn't work well. This recently has changed when i told my sea anchor supplier that i'm still not happy with what i've been using so he came up with a suggestion.

He said "how about i make up one that is made of strong material, opens up all the time, slows the boat down just nicely and you test it out and let me know your thoughts".... that sounds sweet i said!

I've been using this prototype/sample for sometime now (in all conditions) and i'm completely impressed with it. It opens up all the time, slows my boat speed down and isn't a big bulky thing. I gave him the nod and he's now made them up for me to sell.

They're suitable for 6-10 metre boats, has two swivels, a dump/retrieve cord and a carry bag. They normally sell for $199 but i'm doing a " limited special " Only $149 but whilst stocks last. I can get more but they'll be at the normal price however. If your in the market for one or you've had issues like i've had then check them out!

PM me for any more enquiries!

 

Cheers

record time!

Mon, 2008-09-29 16:15

Okay, all Sold out in record time Surprised....thanks again to the FW members that PM'd & call me!

I've just spoken to my manufacturer and he said i can have 10 more only at this Special Price and thats it. The only catch is they'll take 2-3 weeks to make as he has other things on also.

Anyone wanting one can allocate one for themselves via PM, Laybuy, C/C etc......until the 10 has been filled!

Thanks

feedback!

Wed, 2008-10-29 16:56

Thanks Russ, good feedback for sure. Lets face it, we live in a bloody windy state and our quality bottom fish are slack buggers so drifting slower is a must Cool
