Fortress FX-16 Aluminum Anchor (Danforth lookalike)

This is an Fortress FX-16 anchor in excellent condition. Even though it has seen use, parts of the original price sticker are still on it, therefore it was lightly used. I would keep it for my boat, but I already have a smaller Danforth (similar type anchor), which works great. Some highlights:
  • Holds up to 38 ft boats (holding power up to 5,000 lbs) (see Fortress Anchor Sizing and Selection Guide)
  • The fluke angle is adjustable, either 32 deg. for sand, or 45 deg angle for mud, for outstanding holding power in both common seabed materials.
  • Built of precisely machined interlocking aluminum parts, with no welds to weaken the metal.
  • The aluminum magnesium alloy is extremely strong, corrosion-resistant, nonmagnetic and light. It is similar to aircraft alloys.
  • Fortress anchors disassemble for storage. They're easier to handle and lighter on the bow than steel anchors, and do not rust.
  • ``In test after test conducted around the world, no other anchor has set faster or matched the holding strength of the Fortress anchor. Also, no other anchor in history has been called "The World's Best Anchor" by more boaters and respected marine experts than Fortress.'' -- http://goboatingamerica.com/ads/fortress.htm
  • FORTRESS is the only anchor that is Type Approved by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), -- Paradise Yachting
