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.
How do I know if it is compatible?
We recommend checking the sizing table above. If your boat length falls within the range and your intended use is in sand or mud, this anchor is a guaranteed fit for those conditions.
Can this anchor be used on rocky bottoms?
While it can catch on rocks, the Danforth design is optimized for "burying" into soft substrates. On rock or heavy weed, a Claw or Grapnel anchor is typically more effective as the thin flukes of a Danforth may not find purchase or could bend under extreme leverage.
Note: Please verify your required anchor weight and boat displacement before purchasing. For heavy-duty or storm anchoring, we recommend going up one size.
