Fortress Anchors FAQs
What makes Fortress Anchors a good choice?
Fortress Anchors are known for combining durable construction with lightweight aluminum design. Their shape and materials allow them to dig in quickly and hold securely across a range of bottom conditions, making them popular for recreational and offshore boating alike.
How do I choose the right size anchor?
Anchor size depends on your boat’s length and weight, typical bottom makeup, and anchoring conditions (wind, current, etc.). Choosing a size slightly larger than minimum recommendations helps improve holding power and safety.
What is an anchor rode?
An anchor rode is the line, chain, or combination of both that connects your anchor to the boat. Chain helps improve holding power and abrasion resistance near the seabed, while line provides stretch and easier handling.
Can Fortress Anchors be used in saltwater?
Yes — Fortress Anchors’ corrosion-resistant aluminum construction makes them suitable for saltwater use when rinsed and maintained appropriately. Regular inspection helps ensure long service life after saltwater exposure.
Do I need a swivel for my Fortress Anchor?
A swivel can help prevent rode twist and improve anchor alignments when setting or retrieving. Pairing a swivel with proper shackles and chain can make anchoring more reliable and easier to manage.
