Our Mantus has never failed me. As a full time cruiser/live aboard I need to depend in something that works every time without fail. I used the mantus anchored out in various conditions on a muddy/slick bottom where other anchors refuse to set. I have slept over 300 nights last year on this anchor alone. The anchor has been fouled three times, but still managed to set, once with a US flag, a wind scoop and a rather large branch with fishing line tangled in it. I plan on getting the chain hook, the pulpit anchor mount and the 35 mantus. I’m…

I usually don’t rate products but this anchor is the security I was looking for. I upgraded from a Delta which was marginal at best. We swing on anchor most of the summer in the North Channel Ontario. This anchor responded exactly as advertised, set fast and held hard!!! I used it in conjunction with the bridle and mantus hook. What a smooth ride on the anchor. Looking forward to another great year in the coming summer or when the ice melts. Thank you for a great product!

I bought a 45 lb Mantus and a bridle and swivel for my Grand Banks 36. It has set on the first time every time I’ve used it and it’s never drug. My boat hasn’t moved an inch with the anchor you gave me. I love it. And I really like doing business with your company. I’ve said so on the trawler forum. Thank you for giving me the best anchor available. Bryant.
HEADLINE: DRAMA ON THE HIGH SEAS
Paul and I went out for a little putt putt in the bay and lo and behold as were putting along both engines died. We had to call Paul Conner to get a boat and come out and work on the engines all the while not knowing whether the new anchor was going to hold or we were going to drift into the ship channel. It did hold on a very short scope, like two to one. Grabbed the second we put it down. Thanks. Nice relaxing day at sea. Hi Greg, just wanted to let you know how impressed…

Hi Greg, I’ve been meaning to drop you a note and since I received this email, I figured a response was in order. I’d say the Mantus Anchor passed my personal challenge as well. We were headed off shore to Florida on the 23rd of April but had a mechanical failure and after it was fixed, and we had lost a weather window, we decided to head up the ICW. The first night was at a place call the Taylor Bayou Outflow. It was recommends to use by others that have traveled the ICW. It was supposedly a good overnight anchorage and…

Hello Greg, This is Kendall sipe. Talked with you in November 2015 on a 18′ aluminum boat with a duck blind. This anchor is awesome! This thing would hold the titanic!! Thanks for all your help. Kendall

Hi Greg, I have been using your Mantus anchor since leaving Key West, FL. We are now in the Grenadines. We anchored out almost every night. Sometimes in questionable bottoms. Each and every time the anchor has set within its own length and remained set for the duration of the anchorage. The main benefit is getting a good night sleep! I’m very pleased with the anchor and with my decision to oversize it. The anchor gives me confidence to anchor anywhere and close to other anchoring boats. Thank you Eyal M/V Shirili

Hi there, A little more than one year ago, I met you guys at the strictly sail boat show. I had already put an order in with Svendensen’s for a Rocna when I passed by your both and you convinced me to go with you instead. I cancelled my order with them, and I guess they came and talked to you after about carrying the Mantus in their store. I’m glad you did talk to me, because the Mantus 65 has been AWESOME on my Beneteau 43. Its gotten me through some rough stuff including this insane anchorage in the…
A letter from Travis Martin
Dear Mantus Anchor: I just had to send you a note telling you that I love my Mantus Anchor. I have a 30 foot Hunter Sailboat that we sail at Clinton Lake – Lawrence, Kansas. It’s a Corp of Engineers lake and the bottom is pure mud! We also get some serious wind gusts here on this lake. I have (shall I say, had!) a NorthStar CQR plow anchor (35 lb.) that we used for a lunch anchor. It would never really set in this muddy lake bottom and I was always on guard whenever we stopped to swim or…
