SEE HOW THE ANCHOR WORKS
THE SAILOR & THE ENGINEER
The anchor was created from the experience of two cruisers, who decided to found Mantus in 2012-Greg and Deneen Kutsen. Greg sailed extensively in Colombia and among the coasts of Latin America, making his bones in places where anchoring proved problematic. He met Deneen during a long regatta and love blossomed: he an experienced sailor, she a structural engineer. From this explosive mix Mantus was born. www.mantusanchors.com
