Fortress FX Series Lightweight Anchor

Product Description

Fortress anchors are constructed using a high-tensile, corrosion-resistant, aluminium magnesium alloy that is precision- machined into interlocking components with no welds to weaken the metal. This results in a lighter, easy to handle anchor with superior holding power. The anchors have been designed to be easily disassembled for compact storage, or as a spare and/or a storm anchor.
All Fortress® anchors are precision-machined for sharpness and quick penetration into common sea bottoms, which insures faster setting performance. Fortress® and Guardian® anchors also include precision “Mud Palms” to aid setting in all bottom conditions and to solve the anchoring problems found in very soft mud. The Mud Palms are a set of plates that bolt on to anchor creating a “lift” to the crown of the anchor which causes the flukes to point more directly into the sea bed. This helps the anchor set faster in any bottom.
