Abstract: An apparatus for stowing a "Danforth" type anchor and rode, comprising a frame with two vertical slots for receiving and supporting the anchor's stock ends, flukes, and shank. The frame is shaped such that the rode can also be supported and suspended above the deck. After a simple operation, the anchor and rode are stowed in a secure, upright, and compact manner. Provisions are also available for draining liquids from the interior of the apparatus, as well as, for protecting the deck from scratches and abrasions which might otherwise result from contact with the apparatus during use.
