Choosing the Correct D-Shackle Size:

When purchasing an anchor for your boat, it’s important to choose the correct D-shackle to connect your rope and chain securely to the anchor.

As a general rule, the recommended D-shackle size is one size up from your chain size. For example, if your chain is 6 mm, use an 8 mm D-shackle. If your chain is 7 mm, then an 8 mm or 9 mm D-shackle will provide the best fit and strength.

This ensures a secure connection and reliable performance when anchoring your boat.

 

Why Manson Anchors?

Manson Anchors are designed and manufactured in New Zealand, using high-tensile steels and precision fabrication techniques. They have achieved global certification, including approval by Lloyd’s Register EMEA as a “Super High Holding Power (SHHP)” anchor. Manson Anchors NZ+3Manson Anchors NZ+3West Marine+3

This certification means the anchor meets rigorous standards for setting performance, holding power and durability under extreme loading—giving insurance underwriters and boat owners high confidence in the gear.

Made in New Zealand — Proven Worldwide

Manson Anchors’ manufacturing facility in New Zealand ensures every anchor—from 2 kg to 100 kg—benefits from Kiwi engineering, quality welding, and strict testing protocols. As one user put it: “I have toured the Manson factory … the attention to detail … any vessel I own will always be fitted with a Manson Anchor.” Manson Anchors NZ+1

Thousands of boat-owners globally trust the Manson Supreme—whether anchoring in coral bays of the Pacific, muddy tidal flats of New Zealand, or sandy anchorages off the coast of the U.S.A. Outdoor reviewers evaluate its performance in sand, rock and mud and consistently rate it among the best. Practical Sailor+1

Insurance & Safety Approved

Because of the SHHP certification and independently verified high holding power, many insurance underwriters recognise the Manson Supreme as a premium anchor choice. With the right size anchor, proper chain/rode and deployment technique, you can demonstrate significant risk mitigation—reducing chances of dragging, grounding or anchor failure in adverse conditions. Many seasoned skippers consider the anchor as “insurance” for their vessel and crew.

Core Construction & Technical Highlights

Shank – Constructed from high-tensile steel (Bisalloy 80) rated at approx. 780 MPa, compared to mild steel at ~260 MPa. The result: far greater resistance to deformation under load.

Fluke – Reinforced double-skinned laminated toe section ensures the forward loading zone is extremely robust.

Roll-bar / Self-Righting Design – Rather than relying solely on tip weight, Manson uses a roll bar to ensure the anchor self-rights and engages the seabed correctly. This enhances both setting speed and holding power. West Marine+1

Dual-Shank (Dual Slot) Feature – One slot is optimised for rock and coral seabeds (“rock slot”), allowing the shackle to slide and free the anchor if snagged. The other slot (“sand slot”) is ideal for sand, mud, weed, and grass bottoms, as well as heavy-weather mooring. superyachtdoc.com

Penetration & Surface Area – The sharpened spear-head, combined with a broad fluke area, ensures excellent bite and deep embedment. Independent testing shows superior fluke engagement compared to many legacy anchor types. Practical Sailor+1

Robust Welding & Fabrication – Welders are Lloyd's ticketed; raw materials and production processes are audited and certified. Quality assurance is real. superyachtdoc.com

Sizes & Range (Galvanised Supreme)

The Galvanised Supreme anchor range covers weights from 2 kg up to 100 kg, positioning it to suit a wide variety of vessels:

• 2 kg – Micro craft, tenders
• 5 kg – Small runabouts, day-boats
• 10-15 kg – Trailer boats, small cruisers
• 20-30 kg – Offshore fishing boats, mid-sized cruisers
• 50-100 kg – Large yachts, commercial craft

Despite the size range, all models share the same design philosophy and robust construction. You get top-tier engineering with either the 5 kg or 100 kg version.

Why Choose the Galvanised Version?

The galvanised finish offers excellent corrosion resistance for saltwater use, whilst keeping costs lower than stainless steel. It’s ideal for most applications where aesthetics are secondary to performance. For those seeking ultimate finish or longevity (especially in stainless steel environments), the stainless steel version is available. Manson Anchors NZ+1

Uses & Applications

With its versatile design, the Manson Supreme Galvanised Anchor is suited for:

• Cruiser yachts anchoring overnight off exposed coastlines
• Fishing boats anchoring in rocky reef or coral bottom environments
• Commercial workboats needing high-holding anchors in tidal or current sweeps
• Mooring setups or remote anchorage where reset speed and holding are critical
• Insurance compliance for vessels with heavy windage or high risk of dragging

Whether you’re anchoring for the night in a remote bay, mooring in a tidal harbour, or simply want peace of mind when the conditions deteriorate—the Supreme gives you that extra margin of safety.

Selecting the Right Size & Matching Your Boat

When choosing an anchor, several variables matter: boat displacement, windage, mooring location, expected weather, seabed type, chain or rope rode length, and scope. Manson provides a sizing guide, but best practice is to size up rather than down—especially in exposed anchorages. Independent reviews emphasise that even top-anchors underperform if rode-scope is inadequate or the bottom type is poor. Mantus Marine+1

Important factors:

• Use appropriate chain/rode length and ensure heavy-chain for shock absorption.
• Practice setting and retrieval in known good bottom to familiarise yourself with the anchor’s behaviour.
• Bow roller fitment: Manson Supreme is shaped to fit standard bow rollers but check fit before purchase. Some users note it may take more space for stowage. Practical Sailor+1

Real-World Feedback & Performance

Independent testing (e.g., Practical Sailor) found that the Manson Supreme sets well in sand, rock and mud, showing excellent fluke penetration and holding performance. Practical Sailor+1

Forum users worldwide share stories of extreme holds:

“The anchor didn’t budge … rode out hurricane Joaquin (25 miles west of the eye).” Manson Anchors NZ

“Our Manson Supreme has not dragged in six months and visited 26 countries.” Manson Anchors NZ

While no anchor is fool-proof—correct setup, scope, chain and bottom assessment matter—many users say the Manson Supreme offers a step-change in security and confidence. Some criticisms exist (e.g., a user struggling with setting in sand) YBW Forum+1 but the consensus remains favourable when used and sized properly.
