Anchor Test Videos

We’ve pulled together a load of reviews of Mantus anchors from jolly old YouTube for you.

There is one particular YouTube channel called SV Panope that is just the most amazing resource. He covers all makes and sizes of anchors across multiple different types of conditions and presents his findings in a completely clear, interesting and biased manner.

We have included the relevant videos below along with many others which will hopefully help you understand how good this kit really is.
