Abstract: An apparatus for anchoring a boat to a bottom of a body of water is disclosed. The apparatus includes a base securely coupled to a transom of a boat and an elongated member having a proximal end hingably coupled to the base. The apparatus further includes a spear hingably coupled to a distal end of the elongated member, such that when the elongated member is positioned substantially horizontally, the spear is positioned substantially vertically so as to extend below a hull of the boat. The apparatus further includes a maneuvering arm hingably coupled to the elongated member for manually lowering the elongated member into a substantially horizontal position. The apparatus further includes a stopping member perpendicularly coupled to the distal end of the elongated member, so as to halt the spear from rotating beyond ninety degrees from the elongated member.
