Fortress Anchors FX-AS Complete Anchoring System - Fluke Anchor Kit with 3/8" x 250' Rode, FX-7-AS to FX-11-AS

The Fortress FX-AS Complete Anchoring System takes the guesswork out of ground tackle by pairing a high-holding-power aluminum fluke anchor with a matched 3/8 inch by 250 foot rode and all the connecting hardware needed to deploy it. Each 5-piece kit arrives ready to shackle on and drop, saving the time and uncertainty of sourcing an anchor, rode, and swivels separately and hoping they are sized correctly for each other. Fortress anchors are built from a high-strength aluminum-magnesium alloy that delivers a far better holding-power-to-weight ratio than traditional steel anchors, which means less weight to store and handle on deck without sacrificing grip in sand or mud bottoms.

Choose between the FX-7-AS and FX-11-AS based on your vessel size and anchoring demands. The FX-7-AS suits smaller cruising boats and is rated for a 250 pound load capacity, while the FX-11-AS steps up to a larger fluke anchor for boats that need additional holding power. Both systems ship with the same 3/8 inch by 250 foot nylon rode and stainless steel hardware, so the difference between models comes down to the anchor itself.

Sizes & Options

Select the FX-7-AS for lighter cruising boats where a 250 pound rated load capacity and a 20.6 pound complete system weight fit typical anchoring needs. Step up to the FX-11-AS if your boat is larger or you anchor in more demanding conditions and want the added holding power of the bigger aluminum fluke anchor. Both kits include the same 3/8 inch by 250 foot rode, so the choice comes down to matching the anchor size to your vessel.
