ULTRA Anchor Ring



  • Permit Shorter Scope (Sentinel / Kellet).
  • Anchor Retrieval Tool (Tripping Device).


GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1 – ULTRA Anchor Ring for use as an Anchoring Tool (permit shorter scope):
Replace chain or rope weight (Kellet)
– In case of anchoring with limited scope (busy anchorage or limited anchorage area), ULTRA Anchor Ring increases safety by adding weight to the
anchoring system.
– By adding extra weight on the chain ULTRA Anchor Ring reduces the vessel swing area.
– ULTRA Anchor Ring works as a shock absorber improving the comfort at anchor by reducing boat movement.
– HOWEVER if the wind speed increased much, the chain is totally streched and the ring weight is not enough, ought to use long scope again !
To calculate the long scope; you should multiply the debth by the beaufort wind scale.

2 – ULTRA Anchor Ring for use as an Anchor Retrieval Tool:
– Should you be unlucky enough to get your anchor caught on the sea floor.

ULTRA Anchor Ring will be an important recovery tool. This is especially relevant in conditions where entering water is not possible or preferable (such as cold water, rough sea conditions, or the presence of man eating reptiles).

In the event you are anchoring in an area known for fouling, always attach a trip line and buoy before deploying the anchor.
In circumstances where you are unlucky and get caught on the bottom, using the ULTRA Anchor Ring will assist in your recovery prospects.

Selection Table

  • You might think that the diameter of the rope would be strong enough to carry the weight of the ring alone, but keep in mind that you may have to use a little extra force to loosen an anchor that is stuck. Also, if you go for a line that is too thin, it could make lowering the ULTRA Anchor Ring more difficult. We recommend a minimum of 5/16" rope for UAR27/60, 3/8" for UAR45/100, and 1/2" for UAR80/176.
  • The length of the rope needs to be a little less than the depth of the water. This way, the ring doesn't sit on the sea bottom or hug the chain.
  • The type of rope is not that important. If you have a UL-D 40/130 at the bow of your boat, it is for the best to use it with the ULTRA Anchor Ring. Or if you have an ULTRALINE at the stern of your boat, you can even use it by pulling its line from stern to the bow.

If you want to use a separate rope, you can use any rope with the above-recommended size and length.
