Fiorentino's patented design makes it easy for any crewmember to deploy the para-anchor safe and easy every time. Simply drop the rolled up unit into the water. Fiorentino's Para-Ring® and precision weight placement inside the canopy quickly sink the para-anchor below dangerous waves. The fast submersion fully inflates the parachute canopy immediately. Secure your anchor line; you're done.
Fiorentino’s exclusive stainless steel Para-Ring® spreads out the shroud lines, thus preventing chafe and enabling the swivel to work without restriction. The Para-Ring® spins and pivots when it's pulled behind a tugboat, even with 12,000 lbs. of pressure and turbulent propeller backwash attacking the parachute canopy. A spinning swivel prevents twisted lines from closing the canopy shut and the pivotal motion from the Para-Ring® adjusts to fight the natural tendency for a canopy to flip inside out in breaking seas and strong ocean currents.
Rated Number One by Practical Sailor!
"Sea anchors have evolved to become a vital component of the serious sailor's arsenal in heavy weather. We tested models...and favor Fiorentino's...These are
top-of-the-line sea anchors, well built... their more rugged construction will enable them to endure Neptune's savage moods..." - Practical Sailor.
Rated "The Best" by Sail Magazine in a parachute sea anchor comparison
"...After we had done our research, we selected a 12' Fiorentino Para Anchor. It met our cost, weight and storage requirements, and we liked the design of the hardware, the materials and the construction methods used in the canopy."

Prevents tangles, chafe and twisted shroud lines
"Fiorentino's Offshore Anchor includes the world's first anchor stabilizer. The Para-Ring® is the first device to allow a parachute canopy to self adjust in heavy seas and strong ocean currents. Prevents tangles, chafe and twisted shroud lines"
