Invented and developed by
Fiorentino to withstand extreme weather in
situations where Coast Guard rescue is
impossible. This is the only parachute sea anchor to
self adjust
in heavy seas and strong ocean currents. It
is also the only parachute sea
anchor that absorbs massive shock loads
without blowing panels or twisting parachute
lines. That means no collapsing canopies,
which can make quite a difference when
cruising in storm conditions.
Outstanding Para-Ring®
Advantage.
Fiorentino’s
patented Para-Ring®
is a stainless steel
fabrication that comes in eight different sizes
depending upon the size of the para-anchor
and it's application. Fiorentino's exclusive Para-Ring®
spreads out
the shroud lines, thus
preventing chafe and enabling the swivel to
work without restriction.
The Para-Ring®
is the only device on the market that
permits a swivel to rotate under load.

Deploy's Safe and Easy
Every Time.
Fiorentino's patented design makes it easy for
any crewmember to deploy the para-anchor safe and easy every
time. Simply drop the rolled up unit into the water.
Fiorentino's Para-Ring®
and precision weight placement inside the canopy quickly
sink the para-anchor below dangerous waves. The fast
submersion fully inflates the parachute canopy
immediately.
Secure your anchor rode; you're done!
Everything in One Bag.
Pack away in two minutes or less with Fiorentino's Fast-PAK!Just roll it up like a
small sleeping bag and place
the trip line and the anchor in one bag!
Fiorentino
also offers an optional heavy duty deployment bag that allows
you to toss the entire unit overboard.
No Deployment Bag Or
Bulky Chain Needed.
The Para-Ring Anchor is the only parachute anchor that can be
deployed
as is without the use of a deployment bag
or
adding bulky chain. That means there's no
risk of the chute inflating
on deck or tangling itself in a floating bag. Unlike others
sea-anchors, the Para-Ring Anchor is designed with excellent
weight distribution for easier compact handling.

Fiorentino's
These are
top-of-the-line sea anchors,

Prevents tangles,
chafe and twisted
shroud lines.
"Fiorentino's Offshore Anchor includes
the world's first anchor stabilizer. The Para-Ring® is the first device
to allow a parachute canopy to self adjust
in heavy seas and strong ocean currents.
Prevents tangles, chafe
and twisted shroud lines."

Rated
"The Best"
by Sail Magazine
in a parachute
sea anchor
comparison.
"...After we had done our research, we
selected a 12' Fiorentino Para- Anchor.
It met our cost, weight and storage
requirements, and we liked the design of the
hardware, the materials and the construction
methods used in the canopy."

Fiorentino Builds
Strong Anchors.
"Fiorentino canopies are built
from tough
8 oz .nylon materials.The
materials are extremely pliable so the
unit can be rolled up tightly into a
small and compact unit. Shroud lines are
made from commercial fishing lines. These type of shrouds provide
outstanding shock
absorption. Commercial fishing line is the
only line specifically designed for ocean
use with a minimum strength of 2,500 lbs."
--Zack Smith, author of The Complete
Para-Anchor Set-Up
