At some point, nearly every boater wants to anchor their boat; whether just to hang out in the middle of the lake and relax, or to park the boat on the shore while you're camping. We looked long and hard to find a portable anchor solution that actually works, and once we had a chance to use the Seachoice Anchor Fold-and-Hold Box Anchor system on our own boats, we knew we had to offer it for our customers.
Our criteria for finding the perfect boat anchor was simple:
After testing various danforth or fluke anchors and the standard mushroom anchor most boat owners are familiar with, we continued to be disappointed by one, or all of the above criteria. Mushroom anchors only offered effective holding power on all bottom types if they were heavy enough, which immediately meant they missed on the Easy to Store criteria.
Fluke anchors could weigh less for easy retrieval, but their awkward shape and sharp edges were a huge liability for storage. Fluke anchors also have limited holding power on any bottom surface that is less than perfect.
When we finally found the Box Anchor, it was obvious after the first use that this was the solution we had been looking for. Holding power? Check. Easy to store? Big check. Easy Recovery? Check. Long lasting? Well that one too many more hours of testing, but after a few years of use, we can confirm that one as well.
The unique folding design is easy to use and easier to store in the boat. By leveraging geometry instead of mass, the self-bedding design holds stronger the more it’s pulled on. All of that adds up to an anchor that is easy to set; just throw it in the water and apply a little force, you don't even have to worry about the angle or orientation.
Retrieving the box anchor is just as simple, just pull the boat in so that you're directly above the anchor and lift it up. It will pull free easily and you can retrieve and store it.
Speaking of storage, just pull the spring-loaded pin to collapse the box anchor and it will easily fit in your designated storage location.
If you've struggled to find an anchor solution that is portable, easy to use and actually holds the boat, give the Box Anchor a try.
Seachoice Fold-and-Hold Box Anchor Features
This is a great anchor. Holds the boat steady with current and winds. Folds nicely to fit under our front seat. I wish I would have bought this anchor earlier
Works so much better then the conventional anchor we were using. So nice that it’s folding as it doesn’t take up much space. Keeps the boat secured.
I use this on a 2021 Yamaha SX195. The boat came with a 4lb fluke-style anchor that was always dragging on our lakebed. This box anchor grabs and holds on the first try every time! It was well worth the upgrade.
This holds my 2005 Air Nautique 210 well in clay / dirt. Have only used it once at this point but it held well even in rough / windy conditions. Bag seems like it will come apart with use (could be wrong) but the anchor is good.
Used this anchor to secure a 2019 Moomba Makai, 24.5', 5800 lbs dry weight, and worked like a charm! Just dropped it off the side and let the anchor do the work! Did not budge! Comes with a padded storage bag which is wonderful! Live in VA and received the item in 2 days! Will keep coming back to WakeMakers, a great company!
