What happens when the pull on the rode changes to a different horizontal angle from the one that originally set the anchor (i.e. a wind direction shift)?
The XYZ Ω self corrects quickly to re-establish its maximum holding power angle. All anchors have an optimum maximum holding power angle of pull when the rode pulls from straight ahead, over the center of the tip. Just 6° off, will REDUCE the holding power BY UP TO 70%! If an anchor cannot correct itself quickly, it will break out in a short distance. THOSE ANCHORS ARE NOT SAFE. The XYZ Ω has been carefully designed to correct itself immediately.
