The 9 Best Marine Anchor Lines (2023 reviews)

This anchor line is very well made, and sturdy. It's a rope and a carabiner. The spool with 150' anchor line is approximately 9" tall by approximately 8.5" wide. It has an ideal combination of decreased stretch and increased shock absorption. There is one thimble already spliced into the line with a carabiner. If you are familiar with the process of cutting and splicing lines, these can be cut and an additional thimble added.

It is ultra strong with a higher tensile strength than other anchor line materials. The clip makes it very easy to store the rope separate from anchor.

Why We Like This:

High quality, double braid, and high tensile strength, stainless steel thimble
Good strong anchor line, double braid is much better than single braid line
Will also stand up against saltwater, sunlight, mildew, rot & mold, storms, and oil

It works well in the san juan islands near eagle cliff and indian village. It has a thimble only on the leading end. It melts and seals easily. The attached hardware makes it a breeze and adds enough weight to fling the buoy without being too heavy to cause it to drift wonky when returning to the boat to tie off. It comes on a spool so it is not tangled easily.

The rope is soft and probably best for working with bare-handed, it may very well be strong but do NOT use the connection point as-is. This line is very lightweight.

Nice product, sturdy and great splicing at the anchor end
Great anchor rope for the pontoon
Really ease to handle, excellent for small boating
