No Other Anchor Compares to Fortress Anchors, the Best Value in Anchoring Safety and Convenience

For over three decades, the much lighter Fortress Anchor has outperformed substantially heavier steel anchors in holding power tests conducted all around the world.  In the US Navy tests, not only did the Fortress outperform 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.

Fortress Marine Anchors offers a 100% Hassle-Free Lifetime Parts Replacement Warranty.
