Galvanised Sand Anchor - 5kg
Give your anchoring setup a sand anchor designed for sandy or muddy bottoms. Hot-dipped galvanised steel construction and a flat-stowing shape make this a practical option when you want an anchor that is straightforward to store between trips. The broad flukes are the defining feature of this sand-anchor style.
The 5kg (10lb) model has a suggested boat size of 6m. This gives you the variant’s nominal weight and its boat-length guide together when comparing sand anchors.
A practical anchor for sandy and muddy bottoms
The broad-fluke layout is the central reason to choose this anchor style for suitable bottom conditions. Its flat-stowing form also helps when planning an anchor locker or another dedicated storage position. Consider both the space the anchor occupies and how easily it can be brought out when preparing to anchor.
For a replacement, compare the connection at the anchor with your existing shackle and chain. Lay out the components before stowing them so the anchor can be deployed without snagging on loose equipment. Following use, clear away accessible sediment and inspect the flukes, shank and connection for damage or unusual wear.
Selection details
Select the anchor for your boat and the conditions in which it will be used. The suggested boat length is a general guide for average boats in average conditions, rather than a guarantee of holding performance. Include chain in the anchor warp and check the complete connection arrangement when replacing an existing anchor.
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.
