how high off the ground should the anchor position be?

Ideally You will want them 6-12" off of the ground, but if you do not have a wall anchor, that is ok too. I have them mounted on the ground. I laced them through kettle bells so they are on the ground level. They are still affective.

I don't even use a anchor. I purchased some thin rope at tractor supply...tied it around a tree...made a loop big enough for my battle rope. Spent 5 $

Mine are anchored less than 12" from the ground and that works great for me.

Same place just a little higher. It won't be perfectly vertical so you should recalibrate.

You would have to be creative to keep it from flying away, but I think it could be done with concrete bases or sand bags. Drilling into the concrete for little flush sunken anchors if it is your own concrete wouldn't be to difficult and would end up being even better than ground stakes.

I would think it would still sit flat and would be fine as long as you use the wall anchor.

I have mine mounted to the wall in the garage and it is about 2 feet (24") off the ground.

I hang mine outside and I hang it about 26- 28 inches off the ground. I know that seems high but it has quite a bit of stretch and I don't want my butt on the ground. Mine hangs from a heavy duty tow strap which also has some stretch.

I ordered this to take to the beach. I would highly recommend sand anchors. What we did was dig holes aobut 6-8" deep, put the stake in sideways, and pack sand and water on top of it. It held for the most part, but some high winds definitely made the stakes loosen and therefore the net sagged. also note that the poles seemed to dig down into lose sand a bit when trying to make the lines to the stakes tight. Not a problem, unless you must have the net at the exact correct height.

The brass anchors are approx. 4" tall. So they actually need to be set in 4" thick concrete to support the weight of the railing.

I have a 20lb anchor on 17 ft pontoon. I do not recall what manual recommends

16"7". Add 4' to your anchor measurements (2" at each anchor point) for satisfactory installation. Rain and wind will relax (stretch) the sail and you will need to tighten it some. I hope this helps.

I probably would use two especially if you waant it to remain set as a floating island that you can swim out to and use as a resting platform. I would also use a bit heavier anchors also as this anchor is probably not going to be heavy enough to keep it stable and from floating off in a wind or with a bit of waves from passing motorized boats.

We did not anchor it to the ground . We drilled stainless screw into a wooden deck and then used attached straps to the outside loops and anchored them to give it wind stability.

Probably not - At least not safely - Bottom hooks start about 3/4 up from total height as I recall

A 10# mushroom anchor should be more than enough unless used in high wind conditions. Even a 5# weight would suffice in non wind and non current conditions.

The line is about 1 ft off the ground. It's about 7-9 inches off the ground in the middle when you are standing on it. I am about 5ft 10in tall and the top my head is at about 6.5 ft off the ground when I am standing in the middle. The line sinks the most in the middle away from the anchor points. You'll need some room to move your hands above your head to balance.

do you have it attached with the anchors? are the anchors tight enough? Where did you buy it? Send it back if it is not tight enough.

There are several sheetrock anchors on the market that support up 75lbs per anchor. Put 3 on top and three on the bottom and you have 450lbs of support. Use the spiral auger metal anchors. You can find them at home depot.
