Our Review
Auto Anchor is a Remote chain counter telling you how much you have let out. The counter will work for either chain or rope/chain Rhodes. AA150 is the Freeman K. Pittman award winner 2006. Depending on the model, a docking alarm, preset stopping point or automatic slowing feature will assist anchoring.
