Description

Two vintage 10 pound iron stockless boat anchors, one by Paul R. Salomon of Detroit, MI; the other unmarked.

A stockless anchor (or ""patent anchor"") is a streamlined derivation of the traditional Admiralty anchor used aboard large ships. Patented in England in 1821, it eliminated the stock of the Admiralty, making it both easier to handle and stow. Though it did not hold as well as an Admiralty, the trade-off proved acceptable and the stockless anchor became widely popular, and it remains so.
