<p>Anchor apparatus (1) including an anchor (2) and a slideable anchor bridle (3), the anchor having a lower part or body portion with oppositely disposed anchoring formations (6a,6b) extending therefrom and an upper part including bridle attachment means in the form of at least two parallel bridle rails extending above and between the oppositely disposed anchoring formations (7,8), limbs (4,5) of the anchor bridle being slideably attached, in use, to respective bridle rails (7,8), the arrangement being such that when deployed, the anchor can be pulled in one direction whereby to permit one of the oppositely disposed anchoring formations to penetrate the sea bed and whereafter if and when the anchor is pulled in the opposite direction after the bridle limbs have slid along the bridle rails, the other of the oppositely disposed anchoring formations also penetrates the seabed, whereafter the anchor can continue to be pulled in successively alternate directions via the bridle to penetrate progressively further into the sea bed until firmly fixed therein.</p> |
