Anchor for a Bullet
 

I bought a 1990 31-foot Bullet. Under the rear bench seat (on the starboard side) is a mount for an anchor. Does anyone know if this is "standard equipment" or after-market? Does anyone know what anchor fits in there, and is it big enough for a Bullet?

Thanks! :cool:

Or, should I just a Box Anchor? If so, what size? Small or Large?

Thanks (again)! :cool:

I used a small box anchor with my Bullet. It worked fine. So fine, that when it came time to get an anchor for the Top Gun....I bought a box anchor, a small one!!! They are awesome.

Re: Anchor for a Bullet
 

Large box anchors are overkill... they work great, but are reasonably big & heavy. I was always worried about it beating into the side of the boat while pulling it up. Small will work fine.

I think the "factory" anchor is somewhat standard. I'll try to grab a pic of mine tomorrow.

Standard in every Bullet.

Mine had the anchor in place when I bought it. Nice sanitary intallation, with a mount and screw in threaded lock nut. Guess they all had one.

Yep, that's the mount that is there?

Where can I find the anchor that fits in there?

i have the stock anchor but i also carry a box anchor and use it instead

Re: Anchor for a Bullet
 

Thanks everyone. I ordered a Box Anchor. :cool:

Apparently, they were standard in Top Guns as well. I took this out of my boat yesterday. If anyone wants or needs it, PM me in the next week with your address and I'll mail it to you. If noone wants it, It will be getting thrown away. :drink:

Not to hijack the thread or anything :rolleyes: but where do you
Cig guys store your anchors? I do not see a place like an anchor locker in the bow so where is it supposed to be kept? It may seem like a small thing but that is one thing I look for when I shop for a boat because I do a lot more sitting :drink: than I do running and the ease of storeage is high on my list of things I want in a boat.

i put mine under the rear seat.

Those pics that Old School posted are the mounting hardware that is under the rear seat, and I assume they all had them. I noticed anchors yesterday at West Marine and I didn't have any way to compare with mine but looks like the same thing. And if not I guess the mounting brackets could be moved to accomodate a little different one.

I use a Box Anchor. It comes in a vinyl bag and I keep it under the back seat.

Re: Anchor for a Bullet
 

I ordered a box anchor. I told them to also send me an X-large bag. Hopefully, I can get the anchor and 250 feet of line in the bag.

Re: Anchor for a Bullet
 

What the he!! are you going to do with 250' of line???

Re: Anchor for a Bullet
 

I bought a cheapo duffel bag from Target for my Box Anchor. It holds the anchor, line, and I wrap the anchor in a soft fender cover that I think I picked up at Wal-Mart. It works much better than the bag that comes with the anchor.

Lake Travis has some DEEP parts. It is close to 200 feet deep at Hippie Hollow. :eek:
