More Than an Anchor

Identifying the proper anchor size for a boat is not a perfect science. Boat type, boating conditions, amount of rode and rope used, among other factors, all contribute to the ideal anchor for a given situation. An anchor is but one part of an anchoring system.

The Anchor Line

The anchor line, also known as the anchor rode, is a crucial part of the system. Its stretchy, elastic characteristics prevent any destructive jerking from damaging the anchor system when waves push or pull on your boat. Both 3-strand twisted and braided nylon ropes do a great job.

The Lead Chain

The lead chain is also an important part of the anchoring system because it adds weight to the shank of the anchor, providing a better dig or bite into the bottom. These lead chains usually come in galvanized steel or stainless steel, but can also come coated to prevent damaging your vessel.

Shackles & Swivels

Other anchoring accessories can also support the system. Shackles allow the anchor system to take on more loads from a variety of directions. They are composed of sturdy materials like galvanized steel. Swivels alleviate the potential damage of twisting and turning from the boat's movement.

Choosing an Anchor: Water Conditions

Water conditions are a big factor in how you anchor your boat. Coastal and open waters leave your vessel subject to wind, waves, and currents - requiring a more substantial anchor and rode. Anchoring for rivers and smaller lakes tends to be less critical since the boat is rarely subject to strong winds or currents.

Choosing an Anchor: Boat Length

Boat Length is another factor to consider when selecting an anchor. It is a reference point for selecting the ideal size anchor for your vessel. However, keep in mind that the recommended sizes are typically meant for ideal conditions. Consider the boat's weight and external factors like the wind when selecting an anchor's size or weight.

Choosing an Anchor: Bottom Type

When selecting an anchor, it's important to consider the bottom types that you will encounter. Whether it's grass, weeds, mud, rocks or sand, make sure your anchor will perform adequately. If you expect to run into multiple bottom types, versatile plow or scoop-style anchors are an excellent all-around choice.

Choosing an Anchor: Anchor Type

Identifying the proper anchor size for a boat is not a perfect science. Many factors contribute to the ideal anchor for a given situation. An anchor is but one part of an anchoring system. We show anchor boat sizes that are appropriate for most boats under normal, safe boating conditions, when used in conjunction with the other anchoring elements as are generally recommended for proper anchoring.
