Built under 5 lb for easy handling, the anchor is hot-dip galvanized to resist corrosion in fresh and salt water, making it a practical primary anchor for small craft or a dependable secondary stern anchor for larger boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the slip ring design make anchoring easier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe slip ring allows the anchor to move freely along the shank when you pull from different angles, which prevents the fluke from digging in and jamming the shaft.
