ABSTRACT:
A double fluke anchor having a pair of flukes lying in a common plane is welded to a crossbar. An elongated stock projecting forwardly of the flukes at right angles to the crossbar and lying in the plane of the flukes is journaled on the crossbar for limited relative rotation. The forward end of the stock is fixed to the forward end of a hairpin shank having its widest dimension at an intermediate point, approximately in the plane of the pivot of the cross bar and converging toward both ends to form a closed loop. A sliding ring connects the anchor line and the hairpin shank and is freely slidable to both ends of the hairpin shank. With this construction, the anchor may be weighed with the flukes lying adjacent the axis of the hairpin shank with the tips of the flukes pointed downwardly.
