Tie Down Engineering Super Hooker Anchor 40 lb.

Tie Down Engineering Super Hooker Anchor 40 lb.

The Tie Down Engineering Super Hooker Anchor is a well-built, galvanized steel anchor designed for reliable holding in a wide range of bottom conditions. The 40 lb. model is the heavy-duty option in the Super Hooker range built for larger vessels that demand serious holding power and for boaters who anchor in tidal, exposed, or current-prone environments where a lighter anchor may drag.

The hot-dipped galvanized finish provides long-lasting corrosion resistance in both saltwater and freshwater environments, and the strong construction ensures the anchor holds up to regular use season after season.
