CROMOX + Mantus Marine
Ground tackle aboard Sophisticated Lady is a Mantus + CROMOX pairing we actually prefer — Mantus anchors we chose on purpose, and CROMOX stainless chain that finished the system after Mantus pointed us their way. Mantus Marine is an active sponsor/partner; we’ll keep that disclosure light and honest.
