AnchorLift Anchor Safety Strap - 490 lb Breaking Load, Fits 1/4", 5/16", 3/8" Chain
The AnchorLift Anchor Safety Strap secures the anchor while the boat is underway, keeping it locked in place at the bow roller so it cannot shift, rattle, or work loose from wave action and rough water. Attaching between the anchor or chain and a fixed point on the boat, the strap takes the load off the windlass and gypsy during transit, which helps prevent unnecessary wear on the windlass system.
Rated to a 490 lbs. Breaking load, the strap is sized to work with common anchor chain sizes of 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, and 3/8 inch, making it a versatile fit for a range of anchor and windlass setups. It is a simple, low-cost addition to any ground tackle system for boaters who want extra peace of mind that their anchor will stay put while running.
