Fortress Guardian G-55 - Mud Palm Set - Pair

The Fortress Guardian G-55 Mud Palm Set is the original replacement mud palm assembly for the Fortress Guardian G-55 anchor system. After years of anchoring in variable bottom conditions, experienced boaters understand that mud palms are critical wear items that degrade with salt exposure and repeated deployment cycles. This pair set restores your anchor's holding power and mud-gripping efficiency without requiring a complete anchor replacement.

Mud palms are the flat, flexible flukes that penetrate soft bottom and clay substrates, generating the suction grip that keeps your vessel secure in challenging holding ground. The Guardian G-55 mud palms work by expanding laterally when the anchor sets, creating maximum surface area contact with the seafloor—a design principle that demands regular inspection and replacement as material fatigue occurs. This replacement set includes all necessary mounting hardware, allowing straightforward installation without specialized tools or dealer service.

Cruisers and working boaters who regularly anchor in mud, silt, or soft-bottom anchorages will benefit most from maintaining spare mud palms on board. The G-55 is a proven system favored for small to mid-size vessels where compact, reliable anchoring is essential. Inspect your palms seasonally for cracks, bending, or material breakdown; replacement ensures consistent holding power and peace of mind during overnight anchoring or heavy weather conditions. Installation takes minutes—simply remove the old palms using basic hand tools and secure the new pair with the included hardware.
