New York (Jan 1 2008) (www.xyzanchor.com) today introduced its most advanced general-purpose nautical anchor engineered with highest performance and holding power.

With the increased number of hurricanes and other severe coastal storms, the XYZ Ω has been designed from the beginning to HOLD in extreme conditions. That includes the ability to WITHSTAND sudden, severe wind impact regardless of wind direction.
The XYZ Ω is designed to actually INCREASE its digging angle with a sudden increase in pulling force on the rode, REGARDLESS of the angle of pull (even if the pulling angle changes by as much as 180°). AND, once set deep, the XYZ Ω is designed to stay buried even if the scope is shortened to as little as 2:1.
To achieve that performance, The XYZ Ω was designed as an entirely new anchor, not a modification of some other design. In addition to the physical testing, high end CAD programs used in the aerospace industry were used to measure more than 1,000 parameters every second during dynamic simulation testing. The results of this extensive testing led to many small, but significant changes to the original prototype design.
For example: The XYZ Ω has a proportionally LARGE FLUKE, a sailboat short strong shank, and a sharp tip with significant penetrating ability. It will break hard surfaces, set deep in a short distance, and HOLD. Once set, the anchor line will break before the XYZ Ω will break free!* The XYZ Ω is a definitive departure from conventional anchor design. With its significant performance it sets the new standards in almost every anchor category. It may very well open new categories and standards that did not exist before.
