Product of the Month August 2006 - Para Anchor
This life saving device makes it possible for vessels to ride out a storm by literally taking it head on. The bow meets the wind and waves as it was designed to do. Because this ocean anchor allows only minimal drift it also means that instead of trying to run with the storm prolonging the ordeal, the storm passes over the vessel instead. A well secured ParaAnchor can eliminate broaching, capsizing and rolling. Lessening the chance of injury or damage and dramatically improving comfort.

There are three elements to a complete Para-Anchor System:

A. The Parachute

Manufactured from high-density Nylon. Seams are oversewn with polyester webbing to absorb the high loads. All localised stress points are further reinforced with vinyl and polyester webbing inserts. The double braid shroud lines are secured through stainless steel eyelets to the base of the swivel. F

B. The Towing Rode

We can supply a towing rode in braided nylon manufactured by Marlow Ropes in the UK. It comes complete with a stainless steel thimble spliced in each end and a stainless steel 16mm shackle.

C. The Retrieval Line

15 mt of 3-Strand Marstron floating rope is spliced to a floating fender a further 25mts. of Marstron line is spliced to the other end with a small pick -up buoy spliced to the bitter end. This assembly attaches to the stainless steel chain on the apex of the anchor.
