Lewmar Claw Anchor - Galvanized - 16.5lb

The Lewmar Claw Anchor – Galvanized – 16.5lb is a professional-grade holding anchor engineered for serious boaters who demand reliability in variable seabeds. Designed from the proven engineering of anchors used to secure oil rigs in the North Sea, this anchor delivers the holding power and dependability that experienced skippers trust when anchoring in rivers, coastal waters, and offshore environments. The 16.5lb weight makes it an ideal primary or secondary anchor for small to mid-sized vessels up to roughly 30 feet, offering exceptional holding-to-weight ratio that reduces deck clutter while maximizing security.

Constructed from high-grade galvanized steel, the Lewmar Claw Anchor features a claw-style design that bites efficiently into sand, mud, clay, and mixed seabeds without requiring excessive scope or ideal conditions. The galvanized finish provides superior corrosion resistance in saltwater and freshwater alike, ensuring longevity and reduced maintenance compared to bare steel alternatives. Its compact footprint—measuring 14 x 14 x 17 inches—stows neatly on standard bow rollers and davit systems, while the streamlined geometry sets effortlessly even in challenging conditions, reducing the time and effort required to establish a secure hold.

This anchor is ideal for cruising sailors, fishing boat operators, and day-boaters who frequent shallow bays, rivers, and anchorages where quick, reliable anchoring is essential. Its proven holding performance across variable bottom compositions makes it equally effective for overnight anchoring in protected waters or emergency holding in unexpected conditions. The Lewmar Claw Anchor integrates seamlessly with existing bow roller systems and is compatible with standard galvanized or stainless anchor chain and rode setups. For boaters seeking a time-tested, no-compromise anchor backed by industrial-grade engineering, this 16.5lb Claw delivers unmatched peace of mind on the water.
