ANCHOR

The Norestar™ Stainless Steel Claw Anchor is a highly reliable and stylish anchor, modeled after the original Bruce anchor, making it one of the most recommended choices for boaters. Designed to set quickly and securely in various seabeds—including sand, mud, rock, and coral—it offers exceptional performance with short scope anchoring. Constructed from solid, high-polished 316 stainless steel, it not only boasts superior corrosion resistance but also a striking appearance. The anchor is easy to set and recover, includes a trip line point for added security, and comes with a lifetime warranty against breakage.

• Exceptional hold across various bottom types, including sand, mud, rock, and coral
• Superior construction with high-polished 316 stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance

RODE

The Anchorlift Patented Anchor Rode is a premium windlass-grade anchor line, expertly crafted with a double braided 24-plait rope spliced to a hot-dip galvanized HT G43 windlass chain. Its exclusive inner beaded core ensures the rope maintains its round shape, providing superior grip and preventing slippage in the gypsy. Designed for seamless operation through the bow roller and gypsy, this pre-spliced anchor rode delivers trouble-free performance in all windlass applications while also offering durability and a clean aesthetic with its black-and-white braided design.

• Exclusive inner beaded core prevents slippage and maintains the rope's shape
• Smooth operation with machine splice for easy windlass use
• High-quality construction, made in the USA with premium materials

SWIVEL

An anchor swivel is a crucial addition to any anchoring setup, designed to prevent twisting and snagging while extending the lifespan of your rode. By allowing free rotation as the boat shifts, the swivel reduces strain on the chain and rope, ensuring smooth anchor retrieval and secure stowage on a bow roller. Its multi-directional design, including mid-point articulation, makes pulling the anchor onto the deck effortless: it is a valuable investment for boaters looking for reliability and durability.

• Prevents twisting and snagging to preserve the integrity of your rode
• Multi-directional swivel ensures smoother anchor retrieval and easier stowage
• Extends rode life by reducing strain, enhancing long-term performance
