The Delta anchor is a highly regarded plow-type anchor known for its high holding power and reliable performance. With its robust triangular shape and sharp weighted tip, the Delta is designed to dig deep and fast into the seabed. The moment it reaches bottom, the anchor self-orients and buries, creating a secure hold in sand, mud, or gravel. Its design allows it to effectively re-set if wind or current shifts the boat, minimizing the chance of dragging. Made from high-strength steel and hot-dip galvanized, the Delta anchor is built to withstand the rigors of marine use, resisting corrosion and bending under heavy loads. The streamlined shape of this anchor fits most bow rollers, making it popular among both power and sailing yachts for its easy handling and setting. Many sailors and captains trust Delta anchors for overnight anchoring and storm conditions, thanks to their proven holding capability (Delta anchors are Lloyd’s Register certified as High Holding Power). In summary, the Delta anchor combines ease of use with exceptional holding reliability – a smart choice for boaters seeking peace of mind in all anchoring situations.
