This BLA Silver Anchor Rope Hank at 12 mm x 50 m lets you sort a practical anchor setup without messing around cutting loose rope. You get a made up floating line with a stainless steel thimble on one end for the chain shackle and a soft loop on the other end for the bow cleat. The 50 m length gives enough scope for typical inshore drops around ramps and moorings. The rope uses UV stabilised silver synthetic fibres that handle long days in harsh Australian sun. The 12 mm diameter suits small boat fairleads and general anchor hardware without feeling oversize in the hand. The stainless steel thimble copes with constant movement against galvanised shackles. The whole hank comes shrink wrapped so it stays tidy in the shed or side pocket until you are ready to get out there and tackle another trip.

Q: Can I cut the 50 m rope into shorter lengths?
Yes you can cut the 50 m rope. Just remember to heat seal or tape each new end so the 12 mm strands do not unravel. Many boaties cut a short leader and keep the rest as a main anchor line. Always match the new rope length to your normal anchoring depths and scope.
Q: Does this rope sink or float in the water?
This silver anchor rope is a floating line. Floating rope stays closer to the surface instead of dropping straight onto rocks or reef. That can help reduce chafe on rough bottoms. It also makes the line easier to see beside the boat when hauling anchor. Still keep fingers clear of moving rope.
Q: What size anchors is 12 mm rope usually paired with?
12 mm rope is commonly paired with small boat anchors. It suits tinnies and trailer boats that use light to medium anchors in sheltered waters. Always match anchor size to boat length and local conditions. Rope diameter alone does not set holding power so check your whole anchoring setup.
Q: How should I store the rope between trips?
Store the rope dry and out of direct sunlight when possible. The hank arrives shrink wrapped which keeps dust and grit away until first use. After trips rinse salt off with fresh water and let the 12 mm line dry. Coiling the 50 m length loosely avoids kinks next time you head out.
