Huge Old Ships Anchor

Description

Huge Old Ships Anchor.
WOW! This thing makes a statement!
Pulled up by a shrimp boat in the approach to Blackbeard's creek, it's been out of the water for 20 years and is very solid.
You probably didn't notice, but the straight arm of the stock didn't survive and was replaced long ago with a length of pipe welded in place. .
The anchor displays very well with some crustacean and a length of original chain still attached.
Its a big one.
The shank is over 9 feet long.
It is 6 feet across the flukes.
Estimated weight 1600 pounds.
Dates to the mid or late 1800's.
This thing would stand out in front of your bar, restaurant, or in a private collection.
Delivery can be negotiated.
