Key Features Explained
The curved wingtips are configured to help the anchor roll into an upright orientation when setting or resetting. The design also has no movable parts. A tripline eye is provided to help with breaking the anchor out; its presence does not establish whether a tripline is included.
The anchor is described as stowing on a bow roller. Check the available space and dimensions of your own setup before relying on that storage arrangement.
What to Compare Before Buying
- Boat length: Compare your boat with the stated recommendation of up to 14 ft.
- Dimensions and weight: Check the A-E measurements and 2.2 lb weight against your storage and handling needs.
- Anchoring conditions: Consider the seabed types where you expect to use the anchor; the listed types are mud, sand, rock and coral.
- Tripline: If you plan to use one, confirm whether it is included with the selected configuration.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
The product is identified for small boats and craft including pontoons, kayaks, personal watercraft, paddleboards, canoes and inflatables. That listing does not replace checking the 14 ft boat-length recommendation, the anchor’s dimensions or the suitability of the anchor for your particular craft and conditions.
Before You Decide
Confirm the boat-length recommendation, compare the anchor’s weight and dimensions with your setup, and check that its stated seabed types match your intended use. If a tripline matters to your setup, verify whether one is included. Follow the applicable manufacturer instructions for anchoring and recovery.
