Sea-Dog Line 318005 Folding Grapnel Anchor 5.5 lbs with Chain and Line

The Sea-Dog Line 318005 is a versatile 5.5-pound folding grapnel anchor designed for small boats, dinghies, and inflatable vessels ranging from 5 to 14 feet in length. This compact anchor features four strategically positioned flukes that fold flat against the shank for easy storage and transport, making it ideal for boats with limited deck space.

Key Features:

• Hot-dipped galvanized iron construction with forged flukes for superior strength and corrosion resistance
• Four-arm grapnel design provides excellent holding power on rocky, weedy, or uneven bottoms
• Folding arms lock securely in both open and closed positions for safe operation and storage
• Includes 50 feet of 5/16-inch line and 7 feet 10 inches of 3/16-inch galvanized chain
• Compact folded profile is safe for inflatable boats with no sharp edges when properly stowed
• Shank diameter: 1/2 inch; Fluke spread: 14 inches; Fluke length: 4 inches

This complete anchoring system arrives ready to use with pre-attached line and chain, eliminating the need for additional hardware. The grapnel design excels in situations where traditional plow or fluke anchors struggle, particularly in areas with rocks, coral, or heavy vegetation. The folding mechanism ensures quick deployment and retrieval while maintaining a small storage footprint.
