A flexible rope having a free end with a retaining device mounted on the rope, for detachably retaining the free end of the rope. Attached to the rope is the anchor, which has a shank and at least one grasping or holding member extending backwardly from one end of the shank for grasping a rock or for holding a solid mass at the bottom of the body of water. The anchor is attached to the rope so that the one end of the anchor which is formed with the grasping or holding member is positioned remote from the free end or the rope.
