Discover the ultimate space-saving anchoring solution with the PLASTIMO Folding Grapnel Anchor. Expertly designed for boaters who value both performance and practicality, this 7.5 kg anchor is a masterclass in efficient marine engineering. It is the perfect primary anchor for tenders, dinghies, and small watercraft, or an indispensable secondary/kedge anchor for larger vessels where storage space is at a premium. Its intelligent collapsible design allows it to be stowed away neatly in a locker or on deck without taking up valuable room, making it an essential piece of equipment for any well-organized boat.

The key benefit of this grapnel anchor lies in its exceptional holding power on specific seabeds. The four robust, straight flukes are engineered to dig in and securely grip challenging bottoms such as rock, coral, heavy seaweed, and other areas where traditional fluke anchors might struggle to set. This makes it an ideal choice for fishing over reefs, exploring rocky coves, or for use as a "lunch hook" when you need to hold your position reliably for a short period. The grapnel design also makes it a highly effective tool for retrieving lost gear from the seabed.

Crafted for longevity in the harsh marine environment, the entire anchor is protected by a thick layer of hot-dip galvanisation. This superior finishing process provides outstanding resistance to rust and corrosion, ensuring your investment remains durable and reliable season after season. The smooth, sliding collar mechanism is simple to operate, allowing you to effortlessly lock the flukes in either the open or folded position for quick deployment and retrieval. Trust in the renowned quality of PLASTIMO to provide a secure, dependable, and convenient anchoring experience.
