World's Best Anchor!

THE LEGENDARY FORTRESS ANCHOR
In test after test, from coast to coast and around the world, no anchor in history has been called "The World's Best Anchor" by more boaters and respected marine experts than Fortress... and for good reason. Years of research and development, high-tech materials and manufacturing, and thousands of real world tests are your assurance of performance, quality and value. Fortress weighs only half as much as heavier steel anchors and yet outperforms them all. Why? Because the Fortress design does not depend upon weight to provide world class performance. All this adds up to your best value in anchoring safety and convenience.

Also available from Fortress Anchors is the GUARDIAN Utility Anchor

Benefiting from years of Fortress Anchor Research and Development, Guardian offers excellent quality, performance and economy. Guardian is made from the same high tensile, corrosion resistant aluminium-magnesium alloy, and manufacturing precision as Fortress. The use of slightly smaller extrusion profiles and the elimination of some Fortress' extra features, such as anodizing, adjustable fluke angles and several machining steps has resulted in a very affordable alternative to those heavy, rust-prone steel anchors.
