Savwinch Boat Anchor Winch, Anchor & Accessories
Savwinch designs and manufactures premium electric boat anchor winches built to perform in demanding marine conditions. Their Australian-made drum winches are trusted by recreational boaters, commercial operators, and charter fleets worldwide for their reliability, durability and ease of use.
Advanced Anchor Winch Technology
Savwinch is the inventor of the Electronic Fast Fall (EFF) System, the world’s first clutch-free controlled fast-fall anchor deployment system. EFF reduces mechanical wear (compared to a free fall), improves safety, and allows faster, smoother anchor deployment without stressing the motor or gearbox.
Our stainless steel motor and gearbox designs set Savwinch apart from conventional electric windlass systems, delivering a compact, drum-style solution with superior rope management and consistent retrieval performance.

Slider Boat Anchor
Slider anchors (also known as escape anchors) feature a full sliding ring along the shaft. The advantage of the full sliding action is that it allows you to drive over the top of your anchor, slide your chain down the shaft and pull it out when reefed or caught.
Savwinch features the Delta Style design Anchor you’ve known to love. Whilst also having the excellent holding power of a traditional anchor with the added benefit of a Sliding ring.
Savwinch designed their delta-style boat anchors to stop getting stuck on the reef and becoming nearly impossible to retrieve by adding the sliding shaft. The sider anchor will pop back out the way it went in. Equally important, SAV Slider Anchors are constructed from marine grade SS 316 Stainless Steel again featuring exceptional anti-corrosion performance and enhanced aesthetics.
Claw Slider Boat Anchors
Precision-engineered for secure anchoring, the Claw Slider design offers superior holding power compared to traditional anchors, especially when paired with Savwinch drum winches. Ideal for sandy, muddy, or silty conditions, this innovative design ensures your anchor stays put when you need it most.
Savwinch’s innovative Claw Slider Anchors (also known as escape anchors) are crafted with a full sliding ring along the shaft. This unique sliding mechanism lets you drive directly over the anchor, allowing the chain to slide down the shaft and make easy work of retrieving it – especially useful if your anchor gets reefed or buried in tough terrain.
Savwinch engineered the Claw Style Boat Anchor with an innovative sliding shaft to prevent it from getting lodged on the reef and becoming nearly impossible to retrieve. This clever design allows the anchor to smoothly release, backing out the way it was deployed..
Fixed Shank Plow Anchors
When the weather shifts and the water moves, a delta anchor is the difference between drifting and staying exactly where you planned to be. Also known as a delta anchor, this design has become a favourite for boaters who want certainty over unnecessary tech. It’s simple, dependable, and engineered to do one job exceptionally well: set fast and hold firm. They perform extremely well in sand and mud, and remain reliable in gravel and mixed seabeds.
Fixed Shank Plow Anchor Features
What makes a plow anchor different isn’t brute force; it’s geometry. The curved blade, ballasted tip, and self-righting design work together so the anchor naturally rolls into the correct position, digs in, and locks down with minimal dragging. Whether you’re anchoring in sand, mud, gravel, or mixed seabeds, the shape does the thinking for you.
Savwinch’s Fixed Shank Plow Anchors take that proven design and perfect it with premium materials. Choose:
- SS 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance and a clean, polished finish
- Hot-dipped galvanised steel for rugged durability
Both deliver the same holding power; the difference is in finish, maintenance, and budget.
But anchoring isn’t just about the anchor. Your setup matters. Rope, chain, and connection hardware all impact how well your anchor sets and holds. Pairing a plow anchor with the right chain-to-rope combination improves bite, shock absorption, and stability.
And getting your sizing right is important too. A properly matched anchor reduces strain on your gear and your vessel. That’s where a plow anchor size chart can help you choose based on boat length, displacement, and typical anchoring environments.
