Small boats are extremely susceptible to wind drift making an anchor system a welcome addition.
This complete anchoring system for your canoe, inflatable boat or other small watercraft comes in a small, easy-to-store package. The 3-1/3-lb. anchor has four fold-in flukes to get a secure hold on the bottom and is compact enough to pack away in the smallest of storage spaces.
The 25-ft. marine-grade rope is equipped with an in-line marker buoy and a heavy-duty stainless steel snap hook. All items come stored in a handy nylon storage case with drawstring closure.
I have a 4x8 foot Bass Hunter "Bass Baby" boat and this anchor works great with my set up. When space and weight are factors, this is a perfect item. It stows away in the bag easily and even in 20 plus mph winds it held me firmly in place. It is much less cumbersome than the regular type anchor I was using.
I use the small boat anchor system with my kayak and have found it to exceed my hopes. I deployed the anchor in depths between 8' - 45' of water. The lake bed was sand only and the wind and waves were strong. I was surprised that the anchor caught and held despite the conditions. The small bouy made it very easy to grab the anchor line by hand and pull it in.
I use this anchor with a 17 foot canoe for fishing. It works great! It is light enough to handle easily, yet holds the canoe even in a stiff breeze. Makes fishing from a canoe much more enjoyable.
