An anchor assembly (1) comprises a plate anchor element (2) mounted on an associated dynamic implanting follower (6) to facilitate dynamically embedding the plate anchor element (2) in a mooring bed below a body of water. The plate anchor element (2) has a tubular sleeve (20) which is slidably mounted on a shaft (8) of the implanting follower (6), and locates at an upper end of the implanting follower (6) which has a pointed penetrating tip (9) at a lower end of the shaft (8). Radial flukes (22) are mounted on the sleeve (20) in a cruciform configuration. A through-hole (3) is provided in one of the flukes (22) for attachment of a tether line. For deployment of the plate anchor element (2) the anchor assembly (1) is dropped from a height above the mooring bed, freefalling through the water and penetrating into the mooring bed. The implanting follower (6) is then retrieved leaving the plate anchor element (2) buried in the mooring bed.
