The Ultra Anchor demonstrates why a correct weight distribution and design is so important when setting and recovering your anchor. In fact, invert any Ultra Anchor and it will instantly recover itself to the attack position.
Such performance has been achieved with the innovative patented features this anchor displays; including a curved lead filled tip for instant penetration, a hollow shank for optimal weight distribution, concaved base surfaces for maximum holding power and large side wing plates to avoid release during changing wind or tide conditions. Furthermore, each anchor is easily recoverable with the flat pivot surface on the underside base.
The Ultra Anchor is suitable for all vessel types and locates securely onto the bow roller. Standard anchor sizes range from 8kg to 200kg with larger anchors available upon request.
Sourcing Europe’s finest materials and fabricated by specialist engineers, the Ultra Anchor is supplied with a LIFETIME WARRANTY against manufacturing defects under normal conditions and use.
Manufactured in Europe, the Ultra Anchor range is the pinnacle in anchoring technology and design. Completely hand made from 316 stainless steel and hand polished, every Ultra Anchor is designed for excellence.

Unique features
• Hollow Shank – Enables weight to be concentrated on anchor tip.
• Tubular Construction – Anchor cannot lie on its spine and recovers instantly to the attack position. Anchor will also load correctly into the bow roller.
• Lead Filled Tip – Lead is inserted into the anchor tip, achieving the optimal weight distribution and ensuring the anchor will penetrate unfavourable bottom conditions.
• Curved Tip – Importantly, the anchor tip is shaped downwards, ensuring an instant set in the sea floor.
• Max Holding Power Base – The concaved base/fluke has the appearance of a spade or shovel, and has extreme holding power with a greater surface area than conventional style anchors. The result is a more secure, higher holding power anchor that will not release.
• Side Wing Plates – The Ultra Anchor does not release in a changing wind or tide, it performs a complete 180 degree rotation (while still buried) on its own length and holds firm. The side wing plates assist the anchor to perform this procedure and also act to stabilize the anchor as it penetrates the sea floor.
• Flat Underside – Once you begin to recover the anchor from the sea floor, it pivots itself on the flat section and begins to release (boat should be directly over anchor).
• Non Chain-Foul Bar – Often chain can foul around the shank of the anchor, resulting in the anchor not able to set. The clever design feature of the non chain-foul bar ensures chain simply cannot wrap around the shank and provides the ability to attach a trip line.
• Reinforced Eye – Even under the most extreme load the shanks’ reinforced eye will not bend, break or fail.
• Anchor Weight Detail – The anchor weight is stamped into the shank and identifies the anchor size in both kg’s and lbs.
• Serial Number – Every Ultra Anchor is stamped with a unique serial number, ensuring your anchor is always identifiable.
