Boat anchor

A boat anchor for holding on all sea beds, comprising:

• a shank of extended length having a bend between a first end and a second end, and said shank having a concave edge and a convex edge;
• ears extending transversely from said first end of said shank, said ears including a pair of ear lobes extending respectively from opposite sides of said shank, said ear lobes being connected to form a first working surface between extremities of said ear lobes;
• plow flukes extending transversely from said shank at said second end, said flukes including a pair of fluke lobes extending respectively from opposite sides of said shank, said fluke lobes being connected to form a second working surface having a generally pointed end, said pointed end narrowing toward said ears;
• attachment means on said convex edge of said shank for connection to an anchor rode;
• and
• guide means located on said concave edge of said shank at said first end, said guide means including an opening for extending said rode therethrough in use of said anchor, said opening being dimensioned to provide one of a running and sliding fit for said rode.

• a shank of extended length;
• ears extending transversely from said shank, said ears including a pair of ear lobes extending respectively from opposite sides of said shank;
• plow flukes extending transversely from said shank, said flukes including a pair of fluke lobes extending respectively from opposite sides of said shank, said flukes and said ears being spaced apart along said shank length, said shank length including a bend between said ears and said flukes;
• attachment means on said shank for connection to a rode;
• guide means located closer to said ears than to said flukes, said guide means including an opening for extending said rode therethrough in use of said anchor, said opening being dimensioned to provide one of a running and sliding fit for said rode,
• said ear lobes being connected to form a working surface for engaging said sea beds, said working surface being on one side of an axis of said guide means opening.

An boat anchor for holding on all sea beds, comprising:

• a shank of extended length;
• ears extending transversely in opposite directions from said shank;
• flukes extending transversely in opposite directions from said shank, said flukes and ears being spaced apart along said shank length, said shank length including a bend between said ears and said flukes;
• guide means connected to said shank and located closer to said ears than to said flukes, said guide means including an opening for extending a rode therethrough in use of said anchor, said opening having a centerline,
• said ears having a working surface for engaging said sea bed, said working surface being substantially on one side of said centerline, said flukes being substantially on the opposite side of said centerline.
