Boat anchor question

I have one of those high priced Al Danforths that weighs in at 4 lbs. I use it on my canoe and a small 11 foot rowing skiff in some situations. Works great. I did not pay anywhere near that, traded some electrical work for a pile of misc stuff (sort of a grab bag of odds and ends) at a boat shop. It just happened to be in the pile at random.


You can find all kinds of junk when a reservoir is drained (work on the dam for example).... rods, reels, lures, anchors, electric motors, boat motors, and, and, and,, .......you can find about anything

Just come clean and admit it, you bought the anchor at MSRP with the additional monogram and lined carry bag options.

I laughed when I read [font=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]"Just come clean and admit it".. I ran 1 1/2 conduit across the shop (on the roof purlins) and down the far wall, installed a panel, pulled #2 THHN, installed several branch circuits with the respective 3/4 conduit and #12 THHN and so forth ... this was for a decent sized pile of fiberglass cloth and mat, polyester resin, epoxy, misc stuff, and that anchor. He bought the electrical supplies and I sweated my butt off climbing up and down scaffolding every evening for two weeks.. Maybe he got the better end of the deal.

Now I know who to bug for wiring advice. I just wired a sub in the basement last week, so very topical story.
