- Less than half the weight of steel anchors with comparable holding power.
- Immensely strong - precision machined from hardened high-tensile, corrosion resistant, aluminum magnesium alloy; tough anodized finish.
- Changeable shank/fluke angle for extremely high holding power in hard sand and soft mud.
- Easily disassembled for compact stowage as a spare or storm anchor; fits in your bilge - no more excuses for not carrying an adequate “Storm Anchor”.
- Special “Mud Palms” can be bolted onto the crown to increase the fluke angle from the standard 32° to 45° for dramatically improved holding in difficult, soft mud bottoms.<<
- Will never rust.
Fortress weighs only half as much as heavier steel anchors and yet outperforms them all. Why? Because the Fortress design does not depend upon weight to provide world class performance. All this adds up to your best value in anchoring safety and convenience.
In test after test, the Fortress Anchor consistently beats the competition for holding power - often by a large margin, and at a fraction of the weight! The advent of the fortress anchor was a big step forward in anchor design. For the first time, sailors had available a highly engineered, very high holding power anchor, that could be disassembled and stowed for convenient storage, if desired.
Fortress anchors allow you to choose between two shank angles- a 32° angle for sand, or a 45° angle for soft mud. Every Fortress anchor comes with a lifetime warranty on all parts. It has been independently tested - approved by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and used by the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard.
