8mm x 100m Ankapak Polypropylene Anchor Pack — Floating, Ready-to-Use Anchor Line
The 8mm x 100m Ankapak Polypropylene Anchor Pack from Donaghys is a compact, cost-conscious floating anchor rope designed for small to mid-sized boats. Built for reliable performance and quick setup, this white anchor line stands out on deck and in the water, making it easy to locate, secure, and retrieve your anchor with confidence.
Floating, high-visibility design
Made from three-strand polypropylene, this rope floats so it remains on or near the surface, simplifying handling in wind-driven or choppy conditions. The bright white color enhances on-water visibility, reducing the chance of misplacing or snagging the line during anchoring or retrieval.
Durable connections, ready to use
One end features a stainless steel thimble that protects the eye point from wear under load, extending rope life where it matters most. The opposite end is pre-spliced with a minimum of four tucks, creating a sturdy, ready-to-use loop for fast, reliable connections to anchors or cleats. This combination delivers immediate usability straight from the coil.

Why this anchor pack fits your boating needs
Ideal for dinghies, inflatables, small runabouts, and mid-sized boats, this anchor line offers a practical balance of reach, buoyancy, and control. The floating polypropylene construction makes it easier to manage in variable conditions, while the visible white line helps you monitor tension and position even from the cockpit. The integrated thimble shields the load-bearing eye, so your anchoring setup lasts longer between replacements.
How and when to use
Uncoil the line and unfurl the pre-spliced loop for fast attachment to your anchor or cleat. Lower the anchor to the seabed, then secure the line to your bow cleat with the appropriate hitch. In buoyant, windy conditions, rely on the rope’s flotation to keep the line on the surface for quick release or retrieval. When storage is needed, simply coil and stow in the anchoring locker or hatch for ready access on your next voyage.
Maintenance and care
Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater and dirt, then allow to dry before coiling for storage. Avoid prolonged UV exposure on unprotected rope to extend life, and inspect the thimble and eye area periodically for wear.
