Mantus Quick Connect – Small Boat Anchors

The Mantus Quick Connect is a stainless steel small-boat anchor for dinghies, tenders, and kayaks. It collapses without bolts — the shank slides into the fluke and locks with a single spring-loaded pin, and the roll bar removes — so it stows flat in a tight locker and assembles in seconds. Available in 2.5 lb, 8 lb, and 13 lb sizes.

Small boats require a small, lightweight anchor that sets reliably in a variety of bottom soil conditions, and none of the currently available small anchors offer this level of performance.

These models are easily collapsible without the need for bolts, which makes for easy storage; the shank slides into the fluke and needs only a single pin to lock and now features a removable roll bar, so quick assembly and disassembly are possible for storage in tight lockers.

  • 2.5 lbs Stainless Steel – for boats up to 16 feet (No bolts needed for assembly, spring loaded pin locking mechanism)
  • 8 lbs Stainless Steel –   for boats up to 20 feet (No bolts needed for assembly, spring loaded pin locking mechanism)
  • 13 lbs Stainless Steel – for boats up to 25 feet (No bolts needed for assembly, spring loaded pin locking mechanism)

Frequently Asked Questions

What size Quick Connect anchor do I need?

Match the anchor to your boat’s length. The 2.5 lb Quick Connect suits boats up to 16 feet; the 8 lb suits boats up to 20 feet; the 13 lb suits boats up to 25 feet. All three are day anchors, for winds under 30 knots. Between sizes, choose the larger anchor.

Is the Quick Connect a storm anchor?

No. It’s rated for day anchoring in winds under 30 knots. For overnight anchoring or heavier weather, use an appropriately sized M1 or M2.

How is the Quick Connect different from a small M1?

Same setting performance, different assembly: the Quick Connect replaces the M1’s bolted construction with a slide-in shank, a spring-loaded locking pin, and a removable roll bar — no tools, seconds to assemble, flat to stow.
