Will this anchor hold an inflatable kayak on a windy day at the lake? Maybe a slight chop in the water?

sorry for the delayed response. We have used one like this for our15' rib in the ocean. We bought this for the same boat for lake use. I assume it will hold!

I guess it depends on the lake floor. I had drag on a loose sandy ocean floor.

Yes this will hold an inflatable kayak on a windy day. This ancher is around 3 1/2 pounds and the barbs get a good hold in the bottom of the lake. Hope this helps.

Yes, it will! I used mine in Nantucket Bay at Cape Cod, in breezy conditions with more than a 'slight chop' in the water. It held 2 light (Swimways) rafts in place. It was so relaxing to be able to float in the ocean without constantly having to lift your head and check your location!

I believe it would...the anchor has some weight to it..had not had to use it in that capacity yet though!

As this is designed for kayaks, I would not think this would hold a canoe.....

I have taken this boat on a small lake along with a bigger boat. it is hard to control its direction, fits one perfect 2 fit tight but doable holds up to 350lbs I believe, but I also have a challenger 2person inflatable kayak that work a lot better for what you are looking for and fishing

I don't believe I would trust these hooks to hold that much weight. I would opt for the Malone kayak hooks which are a little more expensive, but well worth the difference in price.

I am not that familiar with the particular float you are referring to however I use the Kwik tel A-2 complete folding anchor as pictured here and it comes with a float already attached that has served my needs both on right v Eric and lakes as deep as 32 feet if you ad a little extra line to the 25ft that comes with the Kwik tel A-2....

YES! Holds in lakes, rocks, mud, gravel! Great anchor! I have a 24' pontoon and it holds better than any anchor I have used!

Yes! Not sure how long it will float tho. Bought it for my dad for when he goes paddle boarding. He has dropped in the lake twice, and immediately jumped in to get it. Both times it popped to the surface. He has been using it for a year and loves it!

Depends on current, size of the boat, and the load as well as bottom ( sand, mud, or rock). But generally I would say yes. It holds both my fully loaded canoe and 2 man kayak in some decent currents

Unless there are gale force winds, yes I believe the anchor will work well on the paddle board.

Hi,I carried an aluminum canoe on my 5 door golf using this rack once, so I think your kayak would be just fine. You'd need straps to tie down to the frame of your car though, obviously. This rack pretty much just serves as an offset so the kayak isn't riding right on the roof. I think if you wanted to secure the kayak without using rope etc. you'd have to find some special connection in addition to this rack.

I use a bungee to anchor mine when it gets windy. Living in fl we get oceanbreezy but I don't think this would work for you.

It's easily strong enough to hold a couple kayaks. Just tie them down. You'll be fine.

Yes if you tie it on securely. Also, be sure to place the carrier under the canoe where it will balance correctly. My kayak tends to slip off if I don't position it just right.

Tammy,Yes it will work, however it works even better when anchored. Best Regards,David H

Yes. I have my kayak in the davit and paddleboards hanging in the straps underneath. Holds two easily and also the paddles!

Yes. Super deal if not in a windy area. I live on a lake and have gone through two already and gave up.

Yeah sure, as long as you have a handle in the front and back of your kayak ( to hook the straps to ).
