Rocna Galvanized Anchor 10 Kg

Recommended by Rocna for vessels sizes listed below:

Length x Weight (1 Tonne = 2,200 Pounds)

  • 7 m (23') - Up to 7 Tonne
  • 8 m (26') - Up to 6 Tonne
  • 9 m (30') - Up to 5 Tonne
  • 10 m (33') - Up to 4 Tonne
  • 11 m (36') - Up to 3 Tonne

For multi-hulls: use the Sizing Chart as instructed, then select the anchor model one size larger

Rocna Anchors feature:
  • Fast Set Typically Buried Within 3 Feet
  • Tenacious Holding
  • Sand, Mud, Clay, or Weeds
  • Stays Buried Even With Veering Loads
  • Rugged Construction, with high tensile shank
  • Local or Offshore cruising, Power or Sail

The Rocna was designed in New Zealand by Peter Smith, a Kiwi boat-builder and cruiser. 

Dissatisfied with the performance of currently available anchors, Mr. Smith spent several years developing an anchor which would address the shortcomings identified in other anchors he'd used. 

Testing each prototype aboard his 50' 27-ton aluminum alloy sloop Kiwi Roa, the design was improved until he was satisfied that he had achieved the optimal combination of features.

Rocna: New-Generation Anchor

Recent independent tests by Sail Magazine, Practical Sailor and Cruising World show that Rocna New-Generation type anchors consistently outperform the more traditional plow and claw-type designs. 

The Rocna’s unique design delivers outstanding performance, as displayed in the Sail Magazine anchor testing, where Rocna was the #1 performing anchor in the critical “Max Hold Before Release” test - the maximum holding power generated before the anchor started to drag. 

The Rocna provided over 40% higher holding power than the second best anchor!

The Rocna implements several features which contribute to its unique combination of quality, performance, and cost-effectiveness.

Feature Benefit
   
All steel construction, no lead inserts Thicker steel sections provide higher strength for a given anchor weight
Modern High Tensile Steel used in the shank Extremely rugged construction resists deformation even under heavy or shock loading
Large projected blade area Maximum holding power, particularly important in soft sand or mud
Chisel blade tip Cuts through weeds, grass, or kelp
Rollbar Ensures anchor will immediately turn over and start to penetrate
Increases tip force, ensuring rapid penetration even in hard or weedy conditions
Optimized tip configuration and blade angle Extremely fast set typically buried within 3 feet.
Concave blade surface Piles up material in front of the blade, increasing holding power
Remains buried, even under heavy or veering loads
Tight curve radius between shank and blade Locks anchor into bow roller, preventing movement even when working into heavy seas


  Rocna Anchors User's Guide

  Rocna and Vulcan Sizing Guide

Selecting the correctly sized anchor to match your boat is not quite as simple as it may first seem. There are many factors to consider, including displacement, overall length, windage profile, and the conditions in which you intend to use your Rocna. Most manufacturers provide a very simple guide using only LOA, or displacement, for their different anchor sizes. We have gone a step further.

The following chart will give you a good indication of which Rocna we would recommend for your vessel. Match your vessel’s length with the most appropriate displacement in metric tonnes (T) (2,200 lbs) - if in doubt, always tend toward the larger anchor model.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ON OUR SIZING RECOMMENDATIONS

There is a tendency amongst anchor manufacturers to recommend sizes smaller than required. For example, a certain world-renowned name-brand advises the use of a 20 Kg anchor on a heavy cruising yacht of LOA up to 14.8m. This recommendation is clearly far too light. 

Another brand states that “a working anchor should hold up to 30 knots of wind”. Again, we consider this recommendation would lead to an undersized anchor.

We have resisted this temptation, and the above recommendations are appropriate for heavy-duty use. In our view, a working anchor should hold its boat in all but the most extreme weather.

great anchor September 12, 2016
Reviewer: Don from Deep Cove - Mahone Bay
I had a 6 kg and now have a 20 kg (for different boats). This anchor seems to be everything the ads say it is. I used to use a Bruce, which worked well once set but not so easy to set in certain bottoms. But the Rocna sets quick in grass and weed, holds very very well and deals with wind changes very well. Of course it works well in sand and mud.

I have only used it a dozen or so times, but each time it worked great. The biggest test so far was with 5 to 1 scope (chain) in 22 - 24 knot winds. The anchor did not move and had just dug way in as we found out when we pulled it up. Sorry no 50 knot storm stories.

I don't know of any negative except maybe it is a little more expensive than knock-off anchors and you may have to make adjustments to your bow roller, but maybe not.

I absolutely recommend this anchor
