Britany is the only flat anchor with a shank designed not to foul, thus preventing the anchor from breaking away. It bites into the seabed within seconds.
Instant biting into the sea bed :
The CQR anchor is the oldest anchor, in terms of design, dated back in 1930’s.
Plough shaped with moving shank, was, for decades, the only anchoring solution for recreation vessels. Now days is considered obsolete.
An anchor with a movable stem and twin plates, which allows direct anchoring with the one that comes in contact with the bottom with whichever side it falls.
It is considered ideal for muddy or sandy bottom.
Its disadvantage can be considered that it takes up a lot of space due to design.
Its unique shank profile and ballasted tip make the Delta® anchor self-launching. The low centre of gravity and self-righting geometry ensure that the Delta® anchor will set immediately. Consistent and reliable in performance, the Delta® anchor has Lloyd’s Register General Approval of an Anchor Design as a High Holding Power anchor and is specified as the primary anchor used by numerous National Lifeboat organisations.
All Delta® anchors are “guaranteed for life against breakage”.

Kobra anchor (patented).
Yet another novelty by Plastimo. The anchor resembles the Delta but there is a huge difference.
Cleverly designed to be stored on the bow roller or stowed in the chain locker thanks to its collapsible shank.
Its high holding power makes it ideally suitable for use as a picnic anchor, used in conjunction with a weighted mooring line. This reduces the effort necessary in the absence of windlass.
The Kobra anchor bites into the seabed within seconds and has a very high holding power, thanks to its weighted tip and very broad shoulders. The outstanding performance of the Kobra results from its particular geometric proportions, which allow you to select safely up to 2 sizes down compared to the usually recommended anchor weight.
