Extreme Max BoatTector Complete Grapnel Anchor Kit

BoatTector Anchor Kits were designed with one goal in mind: Convenience. There’s no more messing around trying to find an anchor line to pair with your anchor or wasting time trying to thread on a new marker buoy.

Why? Because we’ve done it for you.

This anchor kit comes stocked with perfectly paired products, and includes the revolutionary folding grapnel anchor, hollow braid polythene anchor line, plated steel snap hook, foam marker buoy, and a durable padded nylon storage bag to hold it all together.

Folding Grapnel Anchor

Performance meets convenience with the BoatTector folding grapnel anchor, pairing the popular four-fluke grapnel design with the ability to fold in on itself for storage in even the smallest crannies. The flukes lock securely into both the folded and open positions easily with a twist of the central locking device, folding and unfolding in seconds.

Grapnel-style anchors are ideally suited for use in coral, rocky, or heavily weeded bottom conditions.

Hollow Braid Anchor Line

Anchors, regardless of style or performance, would be useless without a quality anchor line connecting it to your boat. BoatTector Anchor Kits proudly include a 25’ high-quality hollow-braid polyethylene anchor line to keep your boat secure while the anchor grabs. Included on the anchor line is a moveable marker buoy constructed entirely from durable marine-grade foam. Naturally quick drying, the line and buoy resist mold and mildew, helping them remain structurally sound for years of confident anchoring.

Durable Nylon Storage Bag

Completing the BoatTector Anchor Kit is a durable nylon storage bag that is perfectly sized to hold your anchor, anchor line, and marker buoy. Keeping everything together in one neat bag helps prevent anchor line tangles and lost components. As a bonus, the bag is also padded, designed to protect your boat from the dangers of an exposed anchor bouncing and rolling around in your boat on a rough-water day, while a toggled drawstring cinches everything tightly into one convenient package.

Extreme Max

Extreme Max is more than a brand. It's a way of life.

It's the expectation that your outdoor gear will withstand high speeds, low temperatures and deep powder; long days in the water and sun; or muddy rough-and-tumble terrain.

For every outdoor extreme, we have the equipment.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is this rod made of
Answer:	Fiberglass, metal tip. Extremely well made...we love them and have used them to anchor our ducks boat in pretty heavy chop while diver hunting. Used them up in the marsh to pin the duck blind boats without incident. Well worth the money.

Question:	How do you attach the mounts to boat? Want to use it on a kayak
Answer:	I have an under gunnel rod holder in my boat but for a kayak I would stick it in one of the pvc tube rod holders that are zip tied to a milk crate.
Question:	Will I need to purchase a rod or is it a complete anchor stick
Answer:	Complete anchor stick with strap. I would get the longest stick. Don't bother with shorter option

User questions & answers

Question:	Would this work for a giant inflatable
Answer:	I have a 12 foot Jon and use a 12 pounder that seems like it's just enough. I wouldn't go less than a 15
Question:	How long is the rope
Answer:	Not sure mine is stainless steel. If so, it’s painted, but either way I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in salt water. If you’re concerned you can always rinse it off with fresh watwr afterwards. It’s a pretty stout little unit.
Question:	Is it coated? Or just painted? Thanks
Answer:	Well, I imagine that you could glean some iron by trying to eat it. But if you are really worried about your calorie intake I think you could take the anchor out and leave it home. The temptation will be gone then. Just take the empty bag and no calories are in the bag at all.
Question:	How thick is the anchor rope
Answer:	Yes

• 3.5 lb Grapnel Anchor
• 25' Anchor Line with Snap Hook
• Marker Buoy
• Padded Storage Bag

User questions & answers

Question:	will this hold a float in waves at the beach
Answer:	Must be a bad batch - I just got mine and can’t turn the ring enough to unfold the anchor. May need to send it back.
Question:	Is the marker Buoy foam or rigid plastic
Answer:	The float is PVC not Styrofoam.
Question:	Would this work for a blow up raft in the ocean? On sand bottom
Answer:	This would not hold my light 6' PVC dingy if there was any current. It's not painted well and rusted very quickly, within 2 months of occasional use.
Question:	Could this hold up with river currents
Answer:	No this is likely far too heavy. This anchor was designed for Jet Ski's, Kayaks, Canoes, Paddle Boards.

• Folding Anchor: Our 3.5 lb 4-fluke folding anchor is compact and convenient. Included is a padded draw string storage bag that is perfect for the outdoor person on-the-go.

User questions & answers

Question:	I just received mine. the tabs on the shaft impede easy opening of the anchor and when it's open I can't turn the ring around enough to get it to lock
Answer:	I have not used in the ocean but I live on the Carolina Coast and think the five pound weight is too light to overcome the strength of the near shore waves.
Question:	Is the float PVC (as described) or styrofoam as shown in pictures
Answer:	I don’t know what you mean by river style but we use about 10 of these in a river to anchor buoys to keep boats out of our swimming area. We also use then to anchor a swimming raft. They are light enough to lift and move when needed but don’t get washed down river by a medium strength river current.
Question:	Would this work for a jet ski at the sandbar ? Also, how rust resistant? We go out every weekend in the summer and saltwater can be harsh
Answer:	For an anchor wizard yes. Too big for a kayak though.
Question:	Is this anchor able to go on a 2000 pound boat
Answer:	Made in China.

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.
