Chester Folding Anchor. 



The Host Simple, Complete and Compact 

 Anchor for Small Craft ever invented. 



Experiments have shown 

 that It is much superior in 

 holding power to the ordi- 

 , aary Anchor of the same 

 weight, b\it its great advan- 

 tage consists in Sts compact- 

 ness and the small space it 

 occupies when not in use, 

 as it takes up less than one- 

 fourth of the space of an 

 ordinary Anchorof the same 

 weight. It has only to be 

 seen to be appreciated. 

 It is invaluable for small 

 craft where eco- 

 ,nomy of space 

 18 a de&ideratum 

 being especially 

 adapted to the 

 wants of Canoes, 

 Rowboats. Sail- 

 boats, Yachts, 

 Steam Laimches 

 etc. 



The Anchor has a straight, stockless shank, to the 

 lower end of which are attached the four arms or 

 flukes; these arms have a flat inner surface extend- 

 ing nearly to the point giving the maximum hold- 

 ing power. On the shank is a ring which slides 

 down over the points of/the arms, to hold them in 

 position when folded, where it is retamed by a pin. 



When it is desired to unfold the anchor, the pin is 

 removed, the ring is raised to clear the arms, and the 

 latter tmfold and spread apart, dropping to the 

 position indicated in Fig. 1, the ring slides dovm 

 the shank until it brings up against the unfolded 

 arms, and at a point in the shank just above the top 

 of the ring when in this pbsition is a second hole, 

 in which the locking pin is inserted, so as to hold 

 the ring down upon the arms, which are thus held 

 securely open.
