Spek anchor Spek

Hall typefor work boatsfor merchant ships

Overview

The Spek anchor is a stockless anchor derived from a modified Hall design, engineered for reliable penetration and holding in mud and sand seabeds and for convenient stowage and retrieval. Its geometry places the flukes relative to the anchor's centre of gravity so the flukes naturally orient upward during retrieval, reducing impact on hull plating.

Construction

• Main components: anchor flukes (claw), anchor shank (rod), anchor shackle, and the connecting pin and shaft between fluke and shank.
• Reinforced crown plate and stiffening rib to improve stability and ground penetration.
• Pin connection allows controlled articulation for setting and recovery.

Key features

• Modified Hall geometry for improved setting and holding in mud and sand.
• Fluke orientation designed to reduce hull plate damage during retrieval.
• Stockless configuration suitable for chain stowage in hawse pipes and deck lockers.
• Simple handling and maintenance; adaptable to a wide range of surface vessels.

Typical applications

• Anchoring and mooring for merchant ships, offshore support vessels and naval surface ships.
• Variants referenced for small craft use (examples include anchors sized for ~27 ft boats) and general-purpose mooring anchors.
