We have the spade on all chain.  It's absolutely amazing.  I'm also on the Chesapeake and I can vouch for that anchor, It hasn't budged and has been easy to set and retrieve.  Although, I think the most wind we've anchored in was a small night storm that got to about 35knts

    I would like some input on what type of anchors you folks use.  I know a lot depends on the make up of the bottom.  We sail on the Chesapeake, sandy bottom.  I am considering a 35 pound CQR.   What are your thoughts?  Large enough for our boats?
   
  Thanks
