Project Description
RIVER ANCHOR
What is RIVER ANCHORS?
The River Anchors have been designed for use on soft and moderate bottom conditions or to engage rocks and structure in rivers and current. The tri-fluke design of these anchorsallows the flukes to penetrate and hold to the river bottom. River Anchors are also great all-purpose anchors for lighter craft, or a great second anchor for bigger cruising boats. River anchors are a good choice for pontoon boats and bass boats. Mushroom anchors are like river anchors but without the flukes.
Types of RIVER ANCHORS?
1. Danforth Anchor
The Danforth anchor is a highly popular and relatively lightweight anchor that’s most commonly used on small boats. The Danforth is best used in sand and mud, yet its lightweight and compact design make it fairly easy to retrieve and store. However, it doesn’t work well in gravel or seabeds that are full of weeds.
2. Plough or Plow Anchor CQR
The Plough Anchor CQR (ie. Plow Anchor) works well in sand, rock, and mud, but many sailors find that they have some difficulty getting the CQR to actually set in the seafloor. Sometimes, the hinged plough will skip across the surface of the seafloor, while other times it will dig in and then break itself back out to the surface. However, this kind of anchor is quite convenient for cruising boats because it can often stow well in a roller at the bow, making it quick and easy to place.
3. Bruce Anchor
The Bruce anchor is also know as Clow Anchor , which was designed as an anchoring tool for ships and oil rigs by Peter Bruce in 1970s. They a durable, economical choice for boaters anchoring in mud, sand, and rocky bottoms. The bruce anchors set effortlessly and hold in a variety of seabeds. These anchors are constructed of high-grade steel cast in a single piece for maximum durability. The bruce anchor was desinged easily be stowed on the bow roller of most boats.
4. Grapnel Anchor
The Grapnel Anchor is basicly designed with three or four flukes. It could set quickly in cora and rock sea bed. As the design is not easy for storage and releasing, folding type grapnel anchors are commonly used these years, especially on small boats under 20’inch length. .
How To Choose The Right Weight For Your Vessel?
Generally speaking, the larger your boat, the larger the anchor you need and the smaller your vessel, the smaller the anchor you’ll want to buy. To determine what size anchor you need, you can use a boat/anchor chart. Ater you determined which weight of anchor you need, then you may consider about the chains to be fitted with. We also have many vessel chains in Australia Standard, like Grade L, which is also the most commonly ordered chains recently.
