SARCA Products > Research and Development > Rex Francis
Rex Francis is a keen fisherman with experience as a telecom technician as well as being a mechanic/panel beater and a designer of tools. He has changed the entire boating industry by inventing an environmentally friendly and revolutionary new anchor, the SARCA (sand and reef combination anchor).
Rex say's this new design is truly a worlds first purpose designed combination anchor, we know this as our patent search turned up nothing like it world wide.
Rex, father of five, decided to invent the anchor after several instances of what could have been life threatning situations. For eleven years he applied his mechanical aptitude to design a multi-purpose anchor that covers all of the other anchors on the market because it can be used in sand, mud, rocks and reef.
Although the process of inventing, patenting and marketing has been frustrating and burdensome, Rex can now see the fruits of his labour as his anchor is known throughout international waters and in parts of Asia, America and Europe.
Rex first launched his new design in 1996, by the turn of the 21'st centaury the Sarca anchor had built such a reputation for it's unique ability that many other anchor Manufactures were now being forced to rethink anchor technology, as the Sarca continued to capitalize on sales throughout Australia and New Zealand. 2005 has seen a host of similar arrangements relating to Sarcas's concept released onto the market. Be warned they may look similar but cannot reproduce the performance of Sarca over the variations of substrate on the ocean floor.
Rex explained the appeal of the anchor comes from its ability to function in a variety of sea floor conditions and its unrivalled non-dragging ability, at the same time offering the best chance of retrieval.
Rex recently received an Excellence Award from the Boating Industry Association. This award acknowledged his innovative design that employs a non-led, environmentally friendly device that protects the environment and is far more stable than its contemporaries.
Currently, Rex is working on developing a large product range for bigger markets. "They originally told me that I couldn't reinvent the wheel, but as it has turned out, it has changed the way we anchor our boats, not only in Australia, but worldwide," said Rex.
From frustrated boater to a recognized expert in the boating world, Rex has brought modern thinking and technology to the ageless industry of the sea.

Quite simply you'd have to assume that it works and, after having no end of trouble anchoring my pesky boat in certain situations, out of frustration I put in a call to Rex Francis - the owner of Anchor Right.
Rex started to tell me about the wonderful benefits of his SARCA (Sand And Reef Combination Anchor) that is an Aussie made product taking on the rest of the world.
...
Following the careful instructions from Rex, I dropped the anchor straight down into sand and headed back with the wind. His advice is to let out a ratio of three to one in calm waters and even more if it's rough.
