Technical details
Producer:	Manson Marine (NZ)

After 18 months of extensive research and development, Manson announced the future of anchor technology, The Manson Supreme.
The design brief given was to create the highest holding - fastest setting - fixed shank anchor in the world. A bonus design feature developed was a dual operation shank to enable use in rock and coral seabed types.
The anchor has been closely reviewed by Lloyds Register of Shipping and it received a SHHP status. Super High Holding Power. The first and only production boat anchor in the world to do so.

Manson Supreme Features.
Fully loaded with new designs and features the Supreme truly is the future of anchoring.
It´s unique dual shank removes the need for a buoyed retrieval line which can tangle and is known as a hassle to set up.
The roll bar ensures the correct setting angles are always achieved to ensure immediate setting.
New high tensile steels and construction by leading certified welders mean that you can count on the quality of your product, it hasn´t been made in a general engineering shop, it´s been made by a company solely dedicated to making anchors.
It´s Spear Head means that weed isn´t a problem for the Supreme, it thrives in the toughest of anchoring environments where others fail.

Manson Supreme Construction.
Shank
• Built from High Tensile Steel for extreme strength under load. Bisalloy 80 is 780mPa vs Mild Steel 260mPa ensuring far greater shank resistance to deformation.
Fluke
• Reinforced Double Skinned Laminated toe. Provides an extremely strong forward section of the anchor where the most loading is concentrated.
• Sharpened Spear Head. This feature ensures great penetration into the seabed.
Using high tensile Bisalloy80 steel in the anchors, Manson has proven to be not only the highest holding but are officially the strongest anchor available. In destruction tests, Manson were 25% higher than any other anchor available in New Zealand.

Manson Supreme Dual Shank.
The Manson Supreme has the features to be able to anchor in all seabed types. It’s the first anchor to utilise a dual shank anchoring configuration which enables different slots to be used for different ground conditions.
Using the rockslot, should the anchor become snagged, the shackle can simply slide to the front of the anchor where the traditional tripline was located and pull free. The rockslot feature makes the anchor ideal for anchoring in rock or coral conditions.
Using the sandslot the anchor will remain buried even with major windshifts. The sandslot is ideal for all sand, mud weed and grass conditions. The sandslot is also the recommended attachment for anchoring in extreme wind conditions.
The Supremes´ Shank is 25% stronger than any other Anchor´s.

Manson Supreme Lloyds Approval.
The Supreme uses a roll bar to self right instead of a heavily leaded tip, weight can be distributed into the loadbearing fluke of the anchor. This increased surface area equates to a much higher holding power.
After extensive seabed trialling of scale models and materials testing, Manson were able to develop an anchor that unites immediate setting with Super High Holding Power. This holding has been officially approved by Lloyds Register of Shipping to be the highest of any recognised and certified anchor in the World. This is the very first anchor internationally to receive Super High Holding Power approval for pleasure boat anchors.
Manson had to show that the Supreme was capable of holding twice the amount of every other anchor available. Manson also had to prove the anchors could not be destroyed under lateral loads, vertical loads and shock loading. See VIDEO
