Raptor 8' Shallow Water Anchor with Active Anchoring - White

Raptor keeps working to hold you more reliably than any other anchor, especially in rough conditions. It knows where youre anchoring, whats happening to your boat, and what to do next. It reads the bottom, senses the anchoring force and reacts automatically to keep you locked down until the moment youre ready to change spots. Legendary Minn Kota durability and innovative anchoring technology make Raptor the only hydraulic anchor that can call itself relentless.
