What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing is inconsistent about material and colour: product details say Nylon and Silver, while the feature text claims galvanised iron and zinc plating, and the product information says black + silver. The rope is specified as 40ft in one feature but has no length in the explicit contents list. Check the selected listing for the anchor's material and finish and the rope length before buying.

The available aggregate feedback is entirely in the five-star category, but the sample is small and there are no customer comments or aspect details. It therefore offers little basis for judging real-world holding performance, setup or durability. Buyers should weigh the listing's stated 3.5 lb (1.5 kg) weight and four-fluke design alongside the unresolved material and rope-length details.

Frequently asked questions

What is stated to be included?

The explicit contents list names one paddle board anchor, one marine-grade rope, one nylon storage bag, one floating buoy ball and one stainless steel carabiner. A feature separately specifies a 40ft rope, but the contents list does not give its length.

How does the folding mechanism work?

The listing says to slide the collar up, unfold the four flukes, then slide the collar back down to lock them. This is a stated operating description, not an independently verified performance claim.

What is the anchor made from?

The listing gives conflicting material information. Product details say Nylon, while the feature text describes galvanised iron with a zinc-plated finish. Confirm the material for the selected listing.

What water bottoms does the listing mention?

The product description names sandy, muddy, weedy or rocky bottoms, and advises using plenty of rope for better holding power. No holding-capacity rating is supplied.
