Fortress Guardian G-11 6lb Anchor

Experience the security and convenience of the Fortress Guardian G-11 anchor, weighing only 6 lbs and perfectly designed for boats ranging from 23′-27′ in length.

The Guardian anchor emerges as a superior and cost-effective alternative to traditional heavy steel anchors. Specifically catering to vessels measuring approximately 7-8 meters in length, this lightweight anchor punches above its weight at 6 pounds (approx. 3 kg).

Boasting a formidable holding power of 2,250 pounds (about 1,021 kg) in hard sand and 450 pounds (204 kg) in soft mud at a 32° scope, the Guardian anchor is a testament to exceptional quality and performance. Crafted with high-strength, corrosion-resistant aluminum magnesium alloy, it ensures long-lasting durability even in harsh marine environments.

This product enjoys the legacy of rigorous research and innovation synonymous with Fortress anchors. However, the Guardian series differentiates itself by incorporating slightly more streamlined extrusion profiles and forgoing certain features such as anodizing and adjustable fluke angles, resulting in cost savings for the consumer without sacrificing anchoring efficacy.

Every Guardian Anchor comes equipped with Mud Palms, designed to help the anchor achieve a quicker set in a broad range of seabed compositions. These Mud Palms act to elevate the anchor's crown, thereby orienting the flukes towards the ocean floor for a rapid and secure engagement.

Handling the Guardian anchor is a breeze, thanks to its lightweight nature. Its rustproof qualities are inherent to the aluminum alloy construction, and when it comes to holding power tests, it closely tails the performance of the esteemed Fortress anchors.

The modular design allows for the Guardian anchor to be disassembled, making it an indispensable spare or storm anchor that's also conveniently storable.

Included with your purchase is a 1-year replacement warranty, providing peace of mind and reliability. Should your anchor sustain any damage within the warranty timeframe, expect a hassle-free replacement, with only the shipping and handling costs to be covered by the boat owner.
