You should check these out! Since other sand anchors have been out of stock or taking longer to deliver, I ordered these and grabbed one stick instead. Plastic with a diameter of 5". For a 7,000-lb boat, these were perfect because they weren't moving at all while on the water. Three pieces of 3/8"x2 are used for these. There is a 5" bolt available for this product.
The process of making a shallow sand anchor was demonstrated in a video I posted on my YouTube channel. During my camping trip, I got to use it for 2 weeks. I found it to be very sturdy and easy to install.

Great performances by Strong and Diggs.
A very choppy sea prevented us from standing still in our 21' boat.
