Manson Plough 14kg Galvanised Anchor Ideal for Vessels up to 9m (124008)

Excellent All-round Anchor - High Holding Power

Originally designed in 1933, Plough anchors have been proven all over the world providing the best holding in the widest variety of weather and seabed conditions. The Plough's versatility and holding power in most circumstances will out perform all other types of traditional anchors if set correctly. Manson began manufacturing the Plough anchor in 1977 and the Manson Plough has now become Australasia's anchor of choice - synonymous with safe anchoring. It's built tough to withstand the rigors of the southern ocean, it's respected as the ideal all purpose anchor. The Manson Plough is certified to Lloyd's Register as a High Holding Power anchor (HHP). This process involves design approval of the anchor drawings, extreme scrutinising of the manufacturing process and finally, seabed testing of the anchor in three different soil substrates.

The Manson Plough is available in yacht execution galvanised or exquisitely polished stainless steel.

Manson Plough recommended sizing specifications

Anchor sizing should be interpreted as a guide only. Many factors influence anchor size selection ie, whether the boat is a heavy displacement or a light displacement craft and how much windage the vessel has. The chain size, weight and length is critical to anchor performance and if in doubt use larger chain. Finally the vessel usage should also be factored in ie whether the anchor will only be used as a "lunch pick" in fair weather for day outings or indeed whether the vessel will be going on extended coastal or offshore cruising. If in any doubt about anchor selection always use a bigger anchor, in bad weather or motoring failure, it is the only thing you can rely on to save the lives of you and your crew.
