    Trolling motor

    When the water is being released at the dam in the spring I'd guess north of nine knots. Wind can play a big role as well. I have a Mercury. Would a 20 horse be too much?

    Anchor choice

    A couple of questions. I am replacing a anchor rode and chain on a 25. She has a lewmar 700. The previous anchor was a delta wing anchor. It didn't seem to hold well in the mud, I'm thinking of moving to a claw anchor but I am conserved about its ability to self launch as the geometry looks...
