Abstract
An anchor comprises a base member with a pair of side members swingably connected to its adjacent opposite ends. The ends of the side members remote from the mountings are designed to be coupled and connected to a flexible anchor connection. Bottom engaging means project from the anchor in its triangular arrangement. The anchor is designed when the side members are uncoupled so that the side members may be swung into a position where they are side by side with each other and with the base member.
