Boomer Versatility

This is the best anchor for the majority of your boating activities. It is a convenient, light, strong, reef anchor that holds aggressively and releases safely.

 It has excellent holding capabilities in reef, shale, sand and mud (*). 

(*)"Holding capabilities start to reduce for boats over 6 metres in soft mud conditions" Not recommended for overnight anchoring in mud.

'Reduces the requirement to change anchors for varying seabeds during the day. However, for over-night use, always anchor to the conditions, If in doubt about adverse weather, drop down a big heavy over-sized anchor. Due to the variance in seabeds and different weights of boats within this range, this is only a guide.

Safety is your responsibility. We recommend you always set and test the holding capabilities of your anchor to assess your personal mooring safety.

"Measurable Controlled Release"  shear pin recommendations:
TINNIES / BOATS – 3M TO 6M
BOATS – 6M TO 9M

Start with the 3mm pin  (shear pressure - approx. 60KGs) (*) After a few test runs you may prefer the 4mm pin or continue with the 3mm pin - your choice.

(*) Tensile strength in similar size bolts can vary

4mm pins (shear pressure - approx. 120KGs) (*) 

Larger heavy boats over 6.5 metres may choose to up-grade to a 5mm pin (shear pressure - approx. 180 - 200 kgs)

(*) Tensile strength in similar size bolts can vary

A pack of suitable pins is supplied with your purchase. This should give you months to years of boating enjoyment before you need to re-stock. The zinc/nickel coated bolts are standard sizes you will find in most local hardware stores. (*) Tensile strength in similar size bolts can vary
We strongly urge you to use the recommended pins. Do not use stainless steel, nails or any hardened material which defeats the purpose of the Boomer. A hard material may not shear and damage the Boomer or your boat.

If you have any concerns about pins, we stock bulk purchases of these items for your convenience.

* Boating is an immensely pleasurable activity, however there are risks associated.

*Boomer Anchors takes no responsibility for any adverse results due to your actions whilst using this device.
