Now, let's address some frequently asked questions about the Extreme Max 3006.6548 BoatTector Complete Grapnel Anchor Kit:

How Many Calories In It?

Well, I imagine that you could glean some iron by trying to eat it. But if you are really worried about your calorie intake, I think you could take the anchor out and leave it at home. The temptation will be gone then. Just take the empty bag, and no calories are in the bag at all.

Since this anchor is made with Stainless Steel, would it be usable in saltwater for my coastal kayaking?

Not sure mine is stainless steel. If so, it’s painted, but either way, I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in salt water. If you’re concerned, you can always rinse it off with fresh water afterward. It’s a pretty stout little unit.

I do freshwater kayak fishing. Should I use the 3.5 lb or the 1.5 lb anchor?

3.5 lb, of course. It will be hardly enough. 1.5 lb will be too small for sure.

Will this work for a 14ft Jon boat?

I have a 12-foot Jon boat and use a 12-pound anchor that seems like it's just enough. I wouldn't go less than 15 lb for a 14-foot Jon boat.
