We are very pleased to introduce to you the little "sister" of the SPADE: It is called SWORD.
Its spoon shape confers an exceptional holding .
Its ratio "Holding surface area /weight " is highest of all currently existing
anchors.
The advanced fixing of the shank gives it, in spite of the absence of ballast, a distribution of the weight on the tip (pledge of a good penetration) among the heaviest.
The shape of its shank enables it to adapt itself to all bow rollers.. to self release itself and retrive automatically with the windlass and always to position itself in the best position for a very fast setting.
And much of other excellent characteristiques...
And although its holding is very high, its price is very sveet..

XYZ INTRODUCES THE NEW 2008 XYZ _ Anchor
XYZ Ω Design: Aggressive Performance
The new XYZ Ω Anchor is 10 years ahead of all anchors, in terms of holding power and performance on any anchoring bottom!
ELIMINATING UNNECESSARY ELEMENTS such as a roll bar, heavy, long shank and heavy front ballast, XYZ Ω Anchor design is stripped down to the most fundamental features - the flat and sharp fluke with ultra large surface and very short and strong shank. That smart combination takes performance to the next level: ability to set instantly in all anchoring bottoms super deep, where ultimate holding power is, regardless of angle of pull. When overpowered, even with a sudden impact force, XYZ will NOT BREAKOUT. IT WILL HOLD! The holding power will exceed the breaking strength of the rode. With almost 80% of the weight in its fluke, it delivers 6-9 times holding power level versus current anchors of a similar weight.
With its capability XYZ Ω Anchor sets new standards in almost every anchor category for many years to come. |

The Brake is classified as one of the modern fixed type plough anchors. The characteristics of this anchor is to have big shares strongly formed in 3 planes with inverted edges and a shank long enough to be able to fit the majority of rollers.
The 16 kg model we tested proved to be more than enough for our boat even though. According to the legislation, it requires a higher standard model.
On the first type of seabed (sand and mud) we obtained a constant holding to 800 kg. It started to drag very smoothly from 3000 kg.
On the hard sand, the holding without skidding was 1000 kg with peaks at 1500 kg. Beyond that point, it drags without pulling.
Advantages : Exceptional holding in both types of seabed. The values obtained are equivalent to a medium wind of 42 knots on boats from 10,50 m to 12,50 m. In peak conditions, the 300 kg is equivalent to the higher wind of 60 knots.
The particar shape of the shank makes the pulling out easier when lifting the anchor to the surface vertically.
- Exist in 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 , 34 kg, 40 , 100 kg |

KOBRA anchor
The Kobra anchor bites into the seabed within seconds and has a very high holding power, thanks to its weighted tip and very broad shoulders.
Made from high resistance stainless steel: 55 kg/mm2.
The outstanding performance of the Kobra results from its particular geometric proportions, which allow you to select safely up to 2 sizes
down compared to the usually recommended anchor weight.
For up to 12 m boats (40 ft) as main anchor.
Cleverly designed to be stored on the bow roller or stowed in the chain locker thanks to its collapsible shank.
Its high holding power makes it ideally suitable for use as a picnic anchor, used in conjunction with a weighted mooring line. This reduces the effort necessary in the absence of windlass. |

SPADE anchors are manufactured in 3 materials (Steel, Aluminium, Stainless Steel), and in 6 sizes.
Plough shaped anchors are designed to plough sea floors. SPADE anchors by name, and by action, dig deeply into the sea floor. Once they are within the sea floor, the concave shape of SPADE anchors compact the sea floor, and thus not to move! This design is unique.
The remarkable efficiency of a SPADE anchor is due to the size, and shape, of its effective surface : SPADE anchors of the same surface area will have the same holding power, no matter the material they are made of. All models meet the seven safety criteria :
1. The anchor digs in rapidly, regardless of the type of sea bottom.
2. The anchor buries itself deeply within the bottom.
3. Once set, the anchor gives the maximum holding power without dragging.
4. If the traction force exceeds the bottom holding characteristics, the anchor offers constant, and maximum, resistance to dragging - even if it moves under extreme load.
5. The anchor keeps on holding, regardless of the shift in direction of either the wind or the current.
6. The anchor design doesn't allow the anchor rode to become snagged by the anchor.
7. The anchor is built strongly enough to withstand very high loads.

Navy anchors combine weight with flukes to dig in and hold firmly in sand and mud. The reverse action of the shank allows quick retrieval of a fouled anchor. High-quality gray iron casting, available with aluminum-painted or black PVC-coated finish.

The performance of the CQR™ anchor is now legendary. The original drop-forged construction of the CQR™ anchor increases its strength and reliability under load which is why genuine CQR™ anchors do not break. The hinged shank delivers consistent setting and holding even in the very worst conditions, whatever the changes in wind and current. The CQR™ anchor has Lloyd's Register Approval as a High Holding Power anchor. All CQR™ anchors are "guaranteed for life against breakage". Lloyd's Test Certification is available for individual CQR™ anchors by arrangement.

To make permanent moorings, to anchor floating docks or fish farms basins ,
etc... For equal weight, the helicoid anchors have a higher holding than any
other type of anchor. This type of anchoring can also be used for many
terrestrial applications, when it is necessary "to anchor" something
temporarily or definitively in a movable ground, soft ground - sand.
Advantages:
- For a cheap price, the holding of the helicoid anchors is highest.
- Made of hotdip galvanized steel, their lifespan is very long.
On the opposite of the temporary anchors, they do not dredge on the sea
bottoms, and do not require a great water height ratio for the mooring line .
They are thus respectful of the sea-beds ecology.
The "SKREW" anchor is made out of high strength steel . The rod is forged in
only one metal bar with an round eye fixation .
Fixing is carried out using a bar passed in this eye.
