    Default Worth Original Anchormate


    my buddy was griping about have to wall to the front of his boat to drop his anchor all the time. well his bday is coming up and I was thinking about buying him a Worth Original Anchormate for his jon boat.

    Do a search on it on this site. I don't remember which forum, but somebody just posted about adding one or two to their boat.

    I have one on the front of my Tracker.

    Works great. I have a new i-Pilot now... so I'll see if I need the anchor mate now that I have spot lock via the i-Pilot.

    you'll need to add a few line guide pullies and extra line if you mount the anchor mate at one end and fish out of the other... or else you'll still have that walk.

    DO NOT THROW AWAY YOUR ANCHOR. To me Spotlock is not what it is cracked up to be. I threw out a bouy the other day just to monitor my drift. It would let me get 10 yards or more away from it before trying to correct. Some people have had really great things to say about it though.

    I have two on my pontoon boat. We would replace immediately if anything happened to either. Been running them on my boats since mid 70's.

    worth anchormate is the only brand i know of. i've got anchormate II which pulls the anchor all the way up into the holder. they cost a little more than the original but worth it, cause you don't have to get up!

    Where do you have them mounted at on the pontoon? I was thinking about getting on for the rear. Any photos of it?

    Thanks,
