SeaSense Navy 28 lb Boat Anchor — Black Vinyl Coating, Compact Holding Power for 19'–21' Boats (Sand, Mud, Rock, Weed)

The SeaSense Navy 28 lb anchor is a compact, vinyl-coated boat anchor built to dig into rock, sand, mud or weed bottoms and hold small boats, pontoons and kayaks securely in place.

Engineered as a versatile, budget-friendly anchoring solution, this SeaSense Navy anchor blends weight, shaped flukes and a pivoting swivel action to penetrate different bottoms and set quickly. With a black vinyl finish to resist surface wear and corrosion, the anchor is sized for vessels roughly 19'–21' and smaller craft that need dependable holding power without heavy hauling gear.

How does the Navy anchor perform on different seabeds?

The anchor uses a combination of mass and fluke geometry plus a swivel-enabled point to bite into varied bottoms. It delivers consistent penetration in sand and mud, and the flukes help it wedge and hold on rocky or weedy floors where other shapes may slip.

• Works in sandy, muddy, rocky and vegetated bottoms
• Swivel action improves point-first setting
• Flukes provide lateral resistance once set
• Suitable for tidal and calm inland waters

What boat types and sizes is this anchor best for?

Designed with small boats in mind, the SeaSense Navy 28 lb anchor is recommended for vessels around 19'–21' and for a wide range of smaller craft. It’s especially useful for pontoons, fishing boats, jon boats and kayaks that require a compact but effective anchoring tool.

• Rated for boats approximately 19'–21'
• Works well for pontoons, skiffs and fishing vessels
• Handy option for kayaks when paired with appropriate rode
• Light enough to stow on smaller craft yet heavy enough to hold

How do I rig and maintain the SeaSense Navy anchor?

Rigging is straightforward: attach a suitable length of rope or rope-and-chain rode to the anchor’s shank and use a cleat or anchor roller to deploy. The black vinyl coating reduces scuffs and slows surface corrosion, but occasional rinsing and inspection will extend service life.

• Use rope or a rope/chain combination matched to boat size
• Rinse with fresh water after saltwater use to reduce corrosion
• Inspect shank, swivel and welds periodically for wear
• Store dry when not in use to protect the vinyl finish

Who is this for: The SeaSense Navy 28 lb anchor is intended for recreational boaters who want a reliable, affordable anchor for small to mid-size boats, pontoons, and fishing craft. It’s a practical choice for weekend anglers, family outings, and owners of compact boats who need a durable anchoring option that handles a range of bottom types without specialized deployment gear. SeaSense’s long history in marine accessories since 1984 means this anchor is designed to balance performance and value for everyday use on inland lakes, rivers and nearshore waters.
