Abstract: This invention consists of a weight loaded rope for attachment to an anchor for the purpose of increasing the weight of the anchor without increasing its size. It consists of providing a flexible strand or strands of a heavy metal to be included with the other strands which make up the said rope, whether it is a stranded or braided rope. The additional weight strand provided to the rope may also consist of heavy metal beads which are strung together to form the weight strand; or it may consist of a flexible tubular container which is filled with such metal beads.
