Ground Tackle Force Load (GFTL)...
What anchor does your boat need?
 Based on your boat’s unique characteristics, we can determine the true GTFL from nature forces, as wind and wave surge-forces, that your boat and mooring gears, will be exposed to, in different wind speeds (15, 30, 42, 60, 120 knots).  This valuable information allows any boat owner to better understand his boat, how it reacts and what mooring gear and Hans "Stealth" Anchor should be used in different wind speeds and types of bottoms!  Our page, "Safe Anchoring" is also recommended to study to perform a safe mooring and anchoring!
This GTFL data sheet (pdf-file) is yours after submitting the required data of your boat with E-mail address (for us to respond).      Thank you!
