Fortress is a lightweight yet strong construction high performance Danforth design anchor... with adjustable shank to fluke angle for different bottom compositions. It is a good performance, hand manageable anchor.
That kind of anchor with its movable parts bites, pinches my hands. I'm sold on anchors without moving parts. Have a Fortress in the boat's lazarette, but haven't yet needed to use it, thank goodness.
