subject: Boat Anchors – How to Pick the Right Size? [print this page] The interesting thing to note from this table is that the wind speed has a greater impact than the size of the boat. For instance, if you double the size of a boat, the working load requirement at 15 knots when going from a 20 foot boat to a 40 foot boat is 3.3x (300/90) the working load. However, if you double the wind speed (from 15 knots to 30 knots) for a certain boat size (e.g., 20 foot), the working load requirement is 4.0x (which is significantly more than the 3.3x from doubling the size of a boat). Therefore, even small boats in strong winds will need a strong boat anchor.
