AnchorLift Anchor Puller

Q. What size rope or anchor line will work with the AnchorLift and AnchorLift Pro?
3/8” to 5/8” is recommended.

A buoy’s lifting capacity should be higher than the weight of your anchor. Using a larger sized buoy is fine and will raise your anchor faster by increasing the amount of resistance to pull against.

Q. What is the AnchorLift warranty?
Limited lifetime warranty on both the AnchorLift body and Polyform buoy are standard.

Q. What are the benefits of the AnchorLift Pro?
The AnchorLift Pro is designed for heavy-duty applications and rigorous conditions. Aluminum anodized body is virtually indestructible.

Q. Can the AnchorLift be used along with an anchor winch or windlass? Not recommended. The purpose of the AnchorLift is to do the job of a winch or windlass when they are not practical options.

AnchorLift Disclaimer

• Always operate vessel in accordance with Coast Guard and other applicable regulations and guidelines.
• Use extreme caution when anchoring in moving water and when letting out and retrieving the anchor line.
• Always keep your anchor line free of tangles and away from the propeller.
• Do not use where loss of property or safety may be at risk.

Anchoring your boat with the AnchorLift system

1. Slide the AnchorLift over the end of the anchor line, threading the line under the bolt.
2. Knot the anchor line near its end and fasten the line to your boat.
3. Release the anchor by sliding the bolt to the up position, allowing the anchor line to slide through the AnchorLift.
4. When the anchor and boat are in the desired position, toss the AnchorLift into the water.

To raise your anchor

1. With the AnchorLift on your anchor line, motor your boat forward around the anchor, taking care to keep the anchor line clear of the prop.
2. Proceed slowly – at roughly 5 knots – until the anchor has released from the bottom, then increase speed slightly – 6 to 8 knots. Do not continue forward if the anchor does not break free.
3. The Anchor line will slide through the AnchorLift and float the anchor to the surface.
4. When the anchor reaches the surface, shift into neutral and pull in the slack anchor line.

The Anchor Ring was developed by Ironwood Pacific in the footsteps of the popular AnchorLift product. Fishermen looking for an easier way to raise their anchors needed something that could accommodate all chain or chain and rope combination anchor lines. Commonly used for saltwater applications the Anchor Ring is simple to use and effective at raising your anchor to the surface.

• Off shore anglers using long anchor chain and rope chain combinations like the easy to use functionality.
• Charter boat captains like the Anchor Ring because it slips over their anchor chain when they are ready to pull anchor and works to quickly bring their anchor to the surface.
• Anglers facing strong currents wanting an easier way to haul in their long anchor chain.
