Black Panther 1,745 Posted December 6, 2024 Share Posted December 6, 2024 Are they still in business? I tried calling 3 times , rings then cuts off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,745 Posted December 6, 2024 Author Share Posted December 6, 2024 Alternatively, can anyone here answer this? Can I replace an 80lb manson plough with a 27.2kg (60lb) manson supreme and expect similar performance? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BNG 54 Posted December 6, 2024 Share Posted December 6, 2024 Based on my last 10 years experience of never dragging I would say so. Manson is self righting and sets quicker and deeper. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aardvarkash10 1,087 Posted December 6, 2024 Share Posted December 6, 2024 A few sizes down from you, but we replaced a 20kg plough with a 15kg supreme and experienced a HUGE improvement in security and easier setting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had more than enough chain.,I seem to find that can/bottle etc never dug in even added more chain.The only time it set was in Man o war only to find next morning we had hooked the cable to pakatoa,managed to retrive it. Ended up with a kewene ,no issue. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,745 Posted December 7, 2024 Author Share Posted December 7, 2024 I was always worried the plough was a little undersized, but according to some chart somewhere my chain was a tiny bit heavy. Only times I have dragged was when the idiot skipper miscalculated the tide range. Anyway I have bid on this supreme (trademe). Looking forward to taking 20lbs off the bow. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
