SHHP Super Hawk Anchor

The High Holding Power Anchor, proudly made in Italy

The SHHP Super Hawk Anchor is a Super High Holding Power anchor, engineered to deliver exceptional holding performance with a weight reduction of up to 50% compared to a conventional anchor. It is the only anchor of its kind to be SHHP certified, and it is entirely manufactured in Italy by highly skilled professionals.

Maximum Holding, Minimal Footprint

Thanks to its exclusive design, the SHHP Super Hawk Anchor features a deeply penetrating central fluke and two stabilizing lateral “wings” that significantly increase holding capacity. Its geometry allows for perfect nesting into the bow roller or anchor pocket, minimizing protrusions and making it the ideal solution for tight stowage spaces aboard superyachts, naval vessels, or advanced mooring systems.
