Product Overview
Overview
The Greenfield Vinyl Coated Slip Ring Mechanical Anchor features a traditional fluke anchor design with the added benefit of a sliding ring for easy retrieval. This innovative design allows for simple anchor release by backing your boat directly over the anchor, letting the ring slide to the crown and disengage from the opposite direction.
Fluke anchors require a minimum 5:1 scope (rope length to water depth) for proper setting, with a 7:1 scope recommended for best results. To ensure the anchor remains effective, it’s essential to pair it with an anchor chain, providing the necessary weight to maintain the correct approach angle for setting.
Ideal for moderate conditions and light to medium-duty anchoring, this anchor is designed for boaters seeking an efficient and hassle-free retrieval system in a compact, durable design.
