Anchors & Accessories
The anchor holds the ship - your safety depends on it! Anchor gear components must be well coordinated. Toplicht has suitable anchors for every anchoring ground and every type of boat. Weight anchors, i.e. heavy ship anchors like admiralty pattern anchors (also called "Admiralty" or "Fisherman") or Hall or Union anchors are proven, classically shaped anchors for traditional ships and classic vessels. Modern lightweight constructions such as CQR anchor, WASI/Bugel anchor, Vulcan anchor, Rocna wing anchor or M-/Bruce anchor are common on many sailing and motor yachts. …
… Folding anchors are often used as stern anchors, second anchors and spare anchors because they are easy to stow. Our wide range of products also includes grapnel folding anchors for dinghies, dismountable patent anchors for small motor launches and dinghies, as well as special anchors such as grapnel, ground anchors and rock anchors. Another recommendable piece of boat equipment is an anchor weight. When anchoring, it reduces hard jerking of the anchor chain, improves the pulling angle and reduces the swing arc. If you use an anchor weight in bad weather, you will sleep much better.
