Fortress Guardian G-16 Anchor - 7LB

Ensure your vessel stays securely anchored with the Guardian G-16 Anchor, a lightweight yet robust solution designed for optimal performance in various sea conditions. Crafted from high-tensile aluminum magnesium alloy, this anchor provides exceptional strength without the heavy weight typical of steel anchors.

Unmatched Durability and Performance

The Guardian G-16 benefits from Fortress's extensive research and development, resulting in an anchor that offers superior quality, reliability, and value. Unlike traditional steel anchors, the Guardian is corrosion-resistant and non-magnetic, making it ideal for long-term use in marine environments.

Lightweight Design

Weighing only 7 lbs (3.2kg), the Guardian G-16 is half the weight of comparable steel anchors, making it easier to handle and store on your boat or yacht. Its lightweight construction does not compromise its strength, as it is engineered to deliver holding power comparable to much heavier anchors.

Engineered for Quick Setting and Strong Hold

With a single, fixed 32-degree fluke angle, the Guardian G-16 is optimized for fast setting and strong holding power on most common sea bottoms. This streamlined design eliminates unnecessary machining steps and additional features, ensuring a reliable anchoring experience every time.

Easy Assembly and Maintenance

The Guardian Anchor is designed for effortless assembly and disassembly, allowing for convenient storage and transport. Its construction features no welded pieces, reducing potential points of failure and simplifying maintenance. Additionally, replaceable parts ensure the anchor remains in top condition for years to come.
