Anti-Snag Slip Ring Anchor - 5kg
A snagged anchor can interrupt an otherwise simple retrieval. This slip-ring anchor uses a sliding attachment arrangement to assist reverse recovery when the anchor catches. Its steel-plate construction has a hot-dipped galvanised finish, and the design is intended for smaller powerboats and hireboat applications.
This model has an anchor weight of 5kg (10lb). It combines that size with the slip-ring recovery design, rather than a conventional fixed attachment arrangement.
Recovery assistance in a compact anchor design
The sliding attachment is what sets this anchor apart when planning a replacement for a smaller powerboat. It changes the recovery arrangement while keeping the anchor as a separate item that can be paired with suitable rope, chain and connecting hardware. Check how that attachment will work with the rest of your equipment before choosing the size.
Allow space for the ring to move as intended and check the mechanism during routine inspections. After anchoring, remove accessible sand or debris before stowing the equipment. Inspect the ring, shank and attachment hardware together, particularly after a difficult retrieval or contact with an obstruction.
Selection details
The slip ring is the distinguishing feature of this model. Choose the anchor weight for your intended setup and assess the rest of the anchor arrangement at the same time. Reverse-recovery assistance does not mean that every snag can be released.
Consider handling as well as the storage position when selecting this equipment. Think through how it will be brought out, connected, used and returned aboard with the space available on your boat. Keeping the relevant rope and hardware organised makes routine preparation more straightforward and leaves the complete arrangement easier to inspect between trips.
