  >People I have spoken with swear by the Bruce style.

  The Bruce is probably the single most popular anchor in this area
  (PNW) followed or maybe equalled by the CQR.  We also carry a Fortress sized
to be our main anchor on the
  swimstep as a stern anchor.

  The Bruce's claim to fame is that it's supposed to set very fast, and
  re-set very fast when it comes out, and it's supposed to set quickly
  in a variety of bottoms.  What the Bruce is NOT good for is holding
  power.
  finally encouraged us to go a different way.
