Once you get the anchor to set, it's generally the fluke area that determines
the holding power. So a larger sized aluminum anchor would be better. On the
other hand, the weight of the steel anchor (and it's smaller fluke size) would
enable it to set easier. Just like everything else in the world, it's a
compromise. Why not get one of each?
