Born from the proven Plough design, the MAXSET stainless steel anchor delivers the same rugged performance you expect, with the added advantages of corrosion resistance and a touch of premium look that lasts. What makes this anchor stand out\n- Proven Plough design, refined in stainless steel: The MAXSET range uses a time-tested plough concept that kicks in quickly on contact, penetrating a variety of seabed conditions to secure your position with confidence.\n- Heavy-duty stainless steel: Built to resist corrosion far better than galvanised alternatives, so your anchor stays strong and maintains its sleek appearance even after repeated saltwater use.\n- Self-righting for easier setting: When you drop anchor, the design naturally reorients, allowing for flexible direction changes and superior traction as it digs in.\n- Ideal for small to mid-size craft: Specifically sized for boats roughly 4m–6m in length, this 4kg model balances weight and holding power without adding unnecessary bulk.\n- Bow roller compatibility: Seamlessly pairs with MAXSET bow rollers P105074 and P105075 for quick, clean deployments.\n- Compact yet capable dimensions: 4kg (9lb) anchor with a length of 530mm, width 245mm, height 222mm, and 8mm shank diameter. A practical choice that fits neatly on deck and stows easily. Why boaters choose MAXSET for fishing and cruising\n- Secure hold across diverse seabeds: Whether you’re anchoring in sandy bottoms, soft mud, or weed-prone ground, the plough fluke design presents a strong bite and reliable grip, so you can focus on your fishing spot or shoreline exploration.\n- Great value with quality materials: You get stainless steel durability at a price comparable to galvanised options, plus enhanced corrosion resistance and a longer-lasting finish.\n- Built for real-world boating: The self-righting action and robust construction are especially beneficial for private boaters who want dependable anchoring without fuss, even when conditions shift or you need to re-aim the anchor. Use cases and scenarios\n- Fishing trips: Drop anchor in your favorite spots and stay put while you work lines, bait, or coordinate gear — the MAXSET holds steady against light to moderate currents.\n- Exposed or variable seabeds: The plough design digs in efficiently across sand, mud, or mixed bottoms, giving you reliable security in a range of coastal conditions.\n- Short stops and multi-day outings: Quick to deploy and easy to recover, making it suitable for coastal cruising, anchored lunches, or a quick break during a day on the water. Care, maintenance and longevity\n- Rinse after saltwater use to preserve the finish and maximize corrosion resistance.\n- Inspect the fluke and shank for signs of wear after trips in rough conditions.\n- Store in a dry, ventilated space when not in use to prolong the anchor’s pristine appearance and performance.
