Fortress FX-85 Anchor - 47LB

The Fortress FX-85 Anchor is a high-performance anchor designed for serious cruisers, commercial operators, and recreational boaters who require reliable holding power in various bottom conditions. This anchor is particularly effective for vessels in the 35 to 50-foot range, balancing weight and holding efficiency to ensure security while at anchor.

Constructed from high-strength aluminum, the FX-85 features a patented design that enhances fluke geometry and penetration compared to traditional cast-iron anchors. Its articulated shank design allows for independent fluke movement, improving set reliability and reducing the chances of fouling on debris or uneven seabed terrain.

Ideal for cruising sailboats, trawlers, and displacement-hull powerboats, the FX-85 excels in protected anchorages and coastal cruising grounds. Its compatibility with standard bow roller systems and windlass setups makes it a versatile choice for boaters who prefer traditional anchoring methods over mooring or marina dockage.
