Pool type anchors

Must be undersized. I've had the same type anchors on every boat I've run for the past 20 years, and rarely ever drag. In shallow water (Bahamas) I use about 8:1-10:1.
But in deeper water (50+) I generally use about 4:1

Yeah, I'd say a bit undersized too.
For years I worked a 120' Tri-deck with those same anchors, but we were 450 lbs, 5/8" chain.
The pic you posted looks like it could have been taken from that boat, exact same setup.

If you decide to upsize, let me know. I'll buy yours.

After setting our anchor, we attach our snubber/bridle hook to the chain from the deck and run it down through the hawsehole letting out more chain. If we are using the bridle, we attach one leg to the bollard and then pass the other leg through the hawsehole and retrieve it with the boat hook and attach it to the oposite side bollard. Then we adjust everything accordingly. This is all dependent that you have enough room in your hawsehole to run the lines/hook through.

With the chain hook that I posted a few months ago in this thread, you can grab the chain by hanging it overboard with the lines in your hand. It takes a little bit of practice, but by now I usually grab it upon the first attempt (second at worst), in less than half a minute anyway.
You argued about the ring and carabiner in that thread, but you can also use it with a shackle if you prefer.
I'm just unsure it if's available for chain sizes above 12mm, in case yours are larger.

Here's a previous thread about those anchors:

Maybe a moderator can combine the two threads...

Merged.

I definitely preferred the pocket anchors arrangement that I used to have in my previous boat to the bow roller that I have in the current one.
BUT, pockets do restrict your anchor choices a bit...

That said, I never had a problem with my old stockless anchors - 100 lbs each, on a 35 tons 53 footer.
Oh, and galvanized, of course. I wouldn't want a polished steel anchor if they were given away FoC.
On any sandy bottom, 14 kts of wind would have never dragged the anchor by one inch even with an 8:1 ratio, let alone with the 12+ that you mention.

You could try to see what's the largest galvanized stockless anchor that fits your pockets.
More than likely, you would also be left with some cash after selling those Pool hooks on eBay.

Then again, it also depends on whether your boss rates forms over function.
If there's a contest that galvanized stockless anchors will never win, it's a beauty one!

Few things
Have you swam down and eyed it in person. How deep is it digging in or is it skipping.
Anchor holds by digging in the flukes, they need more surface area. Add material on shank side of flukes.
The bottom of anchor has that perpendicular foot. That's a problem in my eyes, it's preventing proper embedment. When anchor is trying to set its perpendicular to the direction of pull and forces it to skip instead of dig. Navy anchors are very similar minus the flat foot. Cutting torch would fix it.

This was my thought.

I am going out on a limb here to say that Pascal would not use that particular anchor if you gave it to him..........

Oh come on it's perfect and only 10 lbs! Made in china!!
I was using it as an example. No flat foot on the anchor vs his with a foot.
Obviously will take guts to bring a welder or torch near his beautiful anchor but......

LOL, the Made in China stamp killed it !!
