Folded dimensions depend on the size: the 19 lb folds to about 22.5 x 9 x 5 inches, and the 26 lb to about 25 x 10 x 5.75 inches.
Setting is simple: lower it and let out rope at about a 2:1 scope. For sizing, the 19 lb suits sport and offshore boats up to 30 feet (cabin cruisers to 25 feet) and the 26 lb up to 35 feet (cabin cruisers to 30 feet).
The anchor is designed to roll over on its opposite side and reset itself firmly whenever the boat passes over it due to wind or current shifts.
