The Mantus M1 Stainless-Steel Dinghy Anchor has incredible setting ability in all seabed types and easily outperforms its competitors, when tested, our anchors set faster and deeper than any other anchor, including Rocna, Manson Supreme, Bulwagga, Fortress, Bruce, CQR and Danforth anchors.

The Mantus M1 dinghy anchor sets perfectly every time, the roll bar delivers the anchor at the optimum penetration angle and the sharp-headed nose is precision machined to achieve the ideal chisel shape to achieve maximum penetrating power. The M1 will remain stable and buried once in position and will not ‘roll out’ if reversed or veered.
The anchor is a modular design manufactured and formed from the highest quality 316L stainless-steel which is hardened by ‘shot peening’ and then electro-polished to provide maximum corrosion resistance. Their innovative design allows them to be quickly and easily assembled and broken down for storage and requires no bolts, a simple spring-loaded pin locks the shank in place and the roll bar stretches to snap in position securely.
Available in 3 sizes:
• 2.5lbs (1.13kg) for boats 16-20 feet in length and weighing less than 1.36 tonnes
• Also available as a complete kit with bag, 50ft of 5/16 Double braid line & stainless-steel thimble, 1/4 Stainless steel shackle and nose cover

When making sizing recommendations for a cruising anchor we are referring to the needs of a cruising boat spending most of its time on anchor. In doing so we try to envelope high sustained winds (50 kts) and assume poor holding conditions (low viscosity bottoms). Some may think these recommendations to be too conservative especially when compared to sizing tables from other manufacturers. Companies often make claims of superior anchor efficiency, stating that their small anchor X will outperform a much heavier anchor from their competitors and often use sizing charts as a marketing tool to that end, recommending anchors and anchor systems that are dangerously undersized for their intended use. Comparing surface area can be a good judge for potential holding capability. Our anchor sizing recommendations are presented in the tables below and divided in three categories: ‘Day Anchor’ category is recommended for lighter use, expected winds under 30 knots, ‘Cruising Anchor’ for winds under 50 knots and finally, ‘Storm Anchor’ recommendations are intended for winds above 50 knots. These recommendations are made assuming the worst-case scenario, a poor holding bottom and thus may seem conservative, but we believe are accurate.
