Stainless Steel Claw Anchor
High quality casting stainless steel anchors that make all the difference. Easier to keep clean and non-rusting, the claw anchor will compliment any boat. Supplied in a number of weights and ideal for rocks, sand and muddy sea beds you won’t know why you stuck with galvanised steel for so long.
Originally designed in the early 1970s by Peter Bruce, the design was based on his other large-scale commercial anchors for fixed installations such as oil rigs and drilling platforms. The original Bruce Anchor and its copies have garnered a large following among boaters.
Due to its simple construction, the claw anchor is relatively inexpensive when compared to other styles of anchors. Being the shape of an open claw, the design intent was to allow the anchor to tip in any direction when it reaches the bottom and still be able to set properly.
