"As new, in box"
$225 plus determined freight from Houston, TX (I will take it to UPS)

I can do PayPal.

I bought this anchor for a 38' sailboat, as a back-up. Assembled it one time but it didn't fit my bow roller. Never been in the water - I disassembled it, put it down below and it's been in the box ever since.
All parts, bolts, paperwork included...nothing missing. All "as new" condition.

Great anchor, esp. as a stern anchor, lunch hook or a second primary anchor. Or keep disassembled down below "just in case". (Only weighs 15 lbs and easy to put together quickly).

For boats up to 45'.

Note: This is the high-end aluminum model (not their Guardian line which is cheaper).
For all bottom conditions and esp good in sand or mud. Comes with the "mud palms".

I didn't buy the red Fortress Stowaway carry bag but they're easy to find (at Defender: "only" $99) if you like showing off your taste in anchors by walking up and down the dock with the case hanging on one shoulder. Or just to keep it all neatly together in the lazarette.

What a thoughtful anniversary gift!

I just bought an FX-23. That is a great price, wish I still needed one.

For the record, it was not an anniversary gift. But it certainly COULD be. Unless his/her birthday is sooner.
