Danforth Anchors

American Inventor, Richard Danforth, created our lightweight, versatile, and high-efficiency fluke-style anchor in 1939 for use aboard World War II landing craft. Every Ounce Must Count, as described in the June 1943 edition of Motor Boating, has remained a staple in our design and high quality production of the worlds most trusted anchor. To this day, our historic anchor continues making history at times when trust matters most.
