Helix Anchors

Helix anchors are already popular as permanent moorings for boats, floating docks, and fish cages. They are now becoming popular for buoy moorings in those cases where there is a significant chance of or known problem with the buoy being dragged. Pound for pound, helix anchors have higher holding powers than almost any other type of anchor available.

Watermark offers helix anchors that can be installed by a diver without requiring hydraulic-power tools.  These anchors are ideal for small boats and large buoys, and are very cost effective.

Helix anchors are ideal when:

• A permanent, non-dragging anchor is desired for a boat, floating dock, or buoy
• The bottom consists of relatively firm sand for 5 ft or more in depth
• The water depth is shallow enough for a diver to work safely
• Diver services are readily available 
• A low-cost anchor is desired

Conversely, these anchors are not well suited:

• For rocky bottoms
• For those moorings that need to be frequently moved or inspected
• When diver services are cost prohibitive
