Questions and Answers
Q: When is it best to use a crown stock anchor?
Crown stock boat anchors are the top choice for most recreational boats with overall lengths of 10 meters or less. Crown anchors provide sufficient holding power considering their small size
Q: How do crown stock anchors work?
By design, they fold flat and are easy to stow in storage compartments. The anchor arm, or stock, buries itself after the pointed flukes dig into the bottom. For those reasons, fluke anchors are best in hard sand and mud. The flukes can’t penetrate rocky bottoms and are not recommended for slick, grassy bottoms. Loose mud or clay can foul the flukes and prevent bottom penetration
Q: Are crown stock anchors known by any other name?
The crown stock anchor is commonly also named a danforth anchor or fluke anchor
