Abstract
A shallow-water anchor comprises a parallelogram design which is relatively low cost to manufacture. It is electrically powered, eliminating cumbersome hydraulic components. The anchor moves down and out of the way when in operation. Two such anchors can be installed at an angle such that their outer ends and vertical rods are far apart to provide maximal holding power to prevent the boat from weather-vaning. Its electrical power source is located on top of the boat and is never under water, making the installation of the anchor very easy.
