Default Anchor Retrieval

I found this on another site, should help out for fouled anchors and work on wreck anchors.

I admit, cool device.

Ok, probably a dumb question...

Why wouldn't it work with a danforth?

because a danforth anchor has a 50% chance of laying on top of the cable.... would probably still work but not the best setup

Ah, I see, but wouldn't the little float keep the anchor on the correct side?
