For over three decades, the much lighter Fortress Anchor has out-performed substantially heavier steel anchors in holding power tests conducted all around the world. In the US Navy tests, not only did the Fortress out-perform heavier steel anchors, they were also able to withstand pull loads that averaged over 200x their own weight.
Fortress Anchors are constructed using a high-tensile, corrosion-resistant, aluminum magnesium alloy. 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 ensures faster setting-performance.
With it's shorter length shank, the Fortress Anchor FX-115 is the solution for when storage space is a premium.
Fortress Marine Anchors offers a 100% Hassle-Free Lifetime Parts Replacement Warranty.

I ordered the anchor suit to eliminate potential damage to my boat. I thought the unit was very well made and exactly what I was looking for. This AS is for my second anchor. I did not want it bouncing around causing millions of dollars worth of damage to my gelcoat or deal with the frustration of repair. I would recommend it.
AnchorSuits are getting incredibly difficult to find, but they're worth the effort to preserve the deck and anchor locker of my boats. Highly recommend IMG.
