Sand Anchor

230g Nylon (RED)

Cooper Nylon Anchors are light weight, durable and suitable for  Kayaks and Canoes

The Cooper Nylon Anchor sets quickly and continues to move into the sea bed, deeper than most, if not all other anchors.

The holding power of any anchor is directly related to how deeply it sets and holds the sea bed. Most anchors on the market today are restricted by design to ploughing along near the surface of the sea bed and rarely, if ever disappear completely below the sea bed. Anchors very simple design with its weighted tip and straight streamline shank are designed to completely disappear below the sea bed and stay there even through wind and tide changes.

The small area between the shank and the tip, (see diagram below) allow Anchors to change direction with less effort, especially during anchor retrieval. As the boat is pulled forward, over and above the anchor, the anchor rotates with the vertical pull and is easily retrieved.

The small blade on the shank of the Cooper Anchor completely eliminates the possibility of the anchor staying on it’s back. By creating a new balance point that rolls the anchor onto its tip and sets immediately. The small blade also increases holding power and stabilizes the angle of attack as the anchor buries because the small blade and the main blade are at the same angle and support each other. All of these features ensure the anchor sets deeply and provides the maximum holding power for your safety and pleasure.

Protecting Our Reefs

Shackle or tie your rope or chain through hole B and use a cable tie through the main hole A.
If the anchor becomes stuck, as you pull up, the cable tie will break and the anchor will release backwards without damaging the reef or the anchor.
This method should only be used when anchored in reef areas.
*Hint; When using a cable tie, put it through the anchor twice before going around the rope or chain so you don’t leave it behind when it breaks.
