Find the best and most popular boat anchors and review them.
Our review team always considers durability, price, quality, and value in their reviews.
This a solid all round Plow anchor – thought of by some as the number one anchor to have on board.
It is the latest model from the UK Company Lewmar at very competitive prices for stainless steel or galvanized versions. Its concave flukes with ballasted tips are there to maximize holding power in a variety of sea beds. It digs in readily and is self righting.
It is intended as a replacement of the Lewmar Delta anchor and although the shank is shorter it has been designed with the same basic shank geometry so that it will fit into the same bow roller.
It is also available with an optional roll bar.
