Lewmar Claw Anchor 16.5 lb, Galvanized Steel, for Boats 24-30 Feet

The Lewmar Claw Anchor is a one-piece galvanized steel anchor built for boats 24 to 30 feet in length. Its claw-style design is modeled on the anchors used by North Sea oil rigs, giving it a proven shape that sets quickly across a wide range of seabeds and resets fast if the boat swings or drags. The one-piece construction eliminates moving parts that can jam or wear out, so the anchor performs consistently anchoring after anchoring.

This anchor is made from high-grade steel and hot-dip galvanized for corrosion resistance in saltwater and freshwater environments. It holds well in most bottom types and performs especially well in rock, weed, and coral, where fluke-style anchors often struggle to bite. The claw shape allows it to right itself quickly and dig in regardless of which way it lands on the bottom.

At 16.5 pounds, this size is intended for boats in the 24 to 30 foot range. The anchor measures 13 inches wide by 10-1/4 inches high by 19-1/2 inches long. It ships as a single anchor and does not include rode, chain, or a shackle.
