Anchors & Accessories — Secure Holding for Every Vessel

Choosing the right anchor system ensures safety, comfort, and control on the water. A proper setup allows your vessel to remain stable during shifting tide, wind, and swell.
We supply a wide range of anchors and anchoring hardware suitable for day cruising, liveaboard sailing, charter operation, and professional marine use.

High-Holding Power Anchors (Rocna & Lewmar)

For maximum reliability, especially in mixed seabed conditions, we recommend Rocna and Lewmar anchor families.
These anchors are known for:

• Fast setting and immediate hold

• Strong grip on sand, mud, seagrass, and gravel

• High holding power relative to weight

• Confidence in unexpected weather changes

Rocna anchors (including Rocna Original, Rocna MKII, and Vulcan are recognized for their roll-bar geometry, which helps them set quickly and dig deeply.
Lewmar Delta anchors offer consistent performance, great value, and proven reliability for cruisers and charter yachts worldwide.

Traditional Anchors (CQR, Danforth, Bruce & Hall Types)

Classic anchor styles remain popular for simplicity and dependable holding.
We supply:

• Plough/CQR anchors for mixed seabeds

These models provide reliable everyday performance and are easy to stow and service.
