I am puzzled about why people think that HT chain is superior. Part of the reason for going to an all chain
rode is the weight of the chain giving a better angle of pull on the
anchor. HT chain of the same strength is lighter and thus inferior. The advantage of BBB is that the smaller links give more links in contact with the gypsy and so a more secure pull. Also the BBB is more "flexible" and gets hung up less often. My philosophy is to go with the BBB in a larger size if you really need the added strength.
