Guardian Marine Anchors
Guardian Marine Anchors
Guardian Marine Anchors are built using years of Fortress R&D, providing excellent performance, quality, and value. Made from corrosion-resistant, high-tensile aluminum magnesium alloy. Guardian Anchors are lighter and stronger than traditional steel anchors.
These anchors feature a fixed 32-degree fluke angle, suitable for most sea bottoms. They offer fast setting and strong holding power while being a more affordable alternative to heavy, rust-prone steel anchors. As strong as steel but half the weight, Guardian Anchors provide top-tier performance at a lower cost. They are ideal as a storm or spare anchor for your boat or yacht.
