Clarity in Anchoring. Confidence in Command.

Real-time insight into anchor behaviour. So vessels anchor safely, predictably and with awareness.

THE PROBLEM

The Critical Blind Spot: The Anchor

Modern vessels are equipped with advanced navigation, positioning and monitoring systems.
Yet when anchoring, the most critical component remains invisible. We are moving anchoring from reactive to proactive.

Without reliable data, crews rely on indirect signals, experience, and assumption, introducing uncertainty at the very moment stability matters most.

SOLUTION

Anchor Behaviour Made Observable

Our anchor monitoring system delivers real-time visibility into what happens below the surface.
By measuring anchor angle, seabed interaction, and chain dynamics, it transforms hidden mechanical behaviour into clear, actionable data.

The Result:

FOUNDATION

Built on Swiss Engineering Principles

Engineered, validated and manufactured in Switzerland, the system reflects a commitment to precision, robustness, and clarity. No unnecessary complexity. No speculative data. Only validated measurements that support operational decision-making. Every component is engineered to perform in harsh marine environments with reliability as a non-negotiable standard. This is observability you can trust.

Anchoring is rarely as simple as it appears.

68%

Reported experiencing anchor drag at least once during a summer season

58%

Reported at least one anchor-dragging near miss

75%

Identified weather as a contributing factor

What This Enables

Confidence at Anchor. Informed Decisions on the Bridge.

Making Anchor Behaviour Visible

See exactly what is happening below the surface with sub-meter accuracy throughout the entire anchoring process.

Real-Time Data for Confident Decisions

Access continuous, precise measurements that remove guesswork and provide clarity at every stage of anchoring.

Supporting Informed Judgement

Empirical data replaces uncertainty with measurable insight, empowering captains and crew to make confident, evidence-based decisions.

From Reactive Response to Proactive Control

AnchorGuardian continuously monitors anchor force and chain behaviour, helping you act early - before instability escalates.

Risk Mitigation & Responsibility

Risk Mitigation for Ship. Responsibility for Sea.

AnchorGuardian delivers real-time visibility into anchor behaviour, protecting vessel, crew, and surroundings with confidence.
 At the same time, it enables responsible anchoring by reducing seabed disturbance through informed, data-driven decisions.

For Sailor & Ship

Providing safety when anchoring by delivering immediate alarms and predictions. Offering peace of mind to crew by monitoring the absolute movement of the anchor.

For Sea

Protecting marine habitats by sending you alarms when you need them, helping you avoid known sensitive areas.

Word on the Water

What Captains are Saying

"Having real-time data on the anchor end is crucial and would alleviate a lot of sleepless nights."

Captain Richard Thom

“It looks like it should be a standard piece of equipment on every boat.”

Captain Grant Niddrie

"As captain, I need confidence in my anchoring to plan the day properly. When I know what the anchor is doing, I can organize crew and guests in my own time, not under pressure. That creates a calm environment aboard - and everyone responds better to that.”

Captain Damien Carr

“Normally we drop about 50m because it’s a safe amount of chain for us, but in a very busy bay, it would be better to drop only 30m. But I’m not comfortable with 30m. So, if the system tells me, David, don’t worry, we are ok with 30m, that’s better because you are not bothering others and you are traveling less.”

Captain David Badia

“AnchorGuardian didn’t take away the importance of whoever was on the bow looking, feeling, and feeding back information to me. It did provide me with additional information to help me anchor better,”

Captain Camille Rothe

"I believe the marine industry would be better off with AnchorGuardian because it has that additional safety factor, but I think also because we will have a better understanding of what is happening at the anchor when we are anchoring."

Captain Luke Windle

"The size of our vessel is 83m. When we are at anchor, we may have all the toys out (...floating swimming pool, jet skis, tenders, etc.) and having a very early warning of the anchor situation which might lead to a dragging anchor...is very important for us."
