Information Sheets Choosing your anchor Safe Anchoring       "This anchor sets instantly, thanks to its long, thin, sharp-pointed flukes. The 82cm wide transverse bar ensures it never turns on its side. We are astonished by its holding power of more than 3 tons, equivalent to the cable load of a 12m (40ft) yacht in a hurricane. Awesome holding power, speed of setting." Yachting Monthly - Nov 2009

The Fortress anchor

Exclusively on Fortress: the flukes can be adjusted from the normal 32deg angle to 45deg, to increase holding power in soft mud bottoms by as much as 400%.

Fotress and Guardian anchors can be disassembled for storage or parts replacement.
