Guardian is made from the same high tensile, corrosion resistant aluminum magnesium alloy and manufacturing precision as Fortress. The use of slightly smaller extrusion profiles and the elimination of some of Fortress' extra features, such as anodizing, adjustable fluke angles, and several machining steps has resulted in a very affordable alternative to those heavy, rust-prone steel anchors. All Guardian Anchors feature Mud Palms designed to help the anchor set faster in any type of sea bottom. Mud Palms create a to the crown of the anchor, causing the flukes to point more directly to the seabed. This helps the anchor set faster ... in any bottom.Feature Precision-machined from an aluminum alloy that is as strong as steel, but only half the weightResults Easy to manage weight Rustproof Second only to Fortress in holding power tests An affordable alternative to heavy steel anchorsFeature Can be disassembledResults Excellent as a spare or storm anchor Easy to storeFeature 1 Year Replacement WarrantyResultsFree replacement of any damaged anchor part for 1 year**Customer pays shipping and handling costs only
