Galvanized Plough Anchors (CQR Style)
Premium Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel Marine Anchors
The Plough Anchor (often referred to as the CQR style) is one of the most trusted designs in marine history, favored by coastal and bluewater cruisers alike. Engineered with a unique hinged shank, this anchor is designed to remain set even when the wind or tide shifts the vessel's pull direction. Its high-tensile steel construction and hot-dipped galvanized finish ensure exceptional durability in harsh saltwater environments.
Key Features
- β Hinged Shank: Allows for 70Β° rotation to prevent breakout during tide changes.
- β Self-Launching: Weighted tip and geometry allow for easy deployment from bow rollers.
- β Corrosion Resistance: Hot-dip galvanized coating for long-term marine protection.
- β Versatile Grip: Excels in sand, mud, firm clay, and grass seabeds.

Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium quality aftermarket replacement part, manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment (OE) standards for fitment and performance in marine environments.
How do I know if it is compatible?
We recommend checking the anchor weight against our sizing guide above. This design is compatible with most standard marine bow rollers designed for CQR or Delta style anchors.
Why choose a hinged shank anchor over a fixed one?
The hinged design allows the anchor to remain buried while the boat swings with the tide or wind. This prevents the "break-out" effect common with fixed anchors, making it safer for overnight anchoring.
Note: Please verify your vessel's displacement and your bow roller clearance before purchasing. For exceptionally heavy boats, we recommend going up one size. Visit 4boats.co.uk for more hardware solutions.
