[QUOTE="richg99, post: 412453, member: 4376"] I've made and used them a lot on my kayaks. Also have used them less so with my tinny. The rope and ring arrangement by JIM is more than adequate for most uses. In fact, I like a little bit of 'give" so that a wave doesn't pull the stick out of the bottom so easily. On the yaks, I have a bungee type cord that extends out a foot or two from the side of the yak. Yaks normally have an "anchor trolley" running down one or both sides. That pulley arrangement (simple to add to any craft) allows you to position the anchor or the stickk anchor forward, back or amidships. My latest one is an 8 foot PVC/steel garden stake from Loews. I think it cost $7.00 I added a PVC -T- and a bit of a hook. It does triple duty now as a short push pole; a boat hook (great around docks) and a stickk anchor. I used it today as a push pole and to help bring the tinny into the dock. richg99 https://forum.tinboats.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=40235 Stickk anchor under ten bucks... [/QUOTE]
