The disclosed plate anchor is an isosceles flat plate 1 connected with a short rope 5 and two equal length ropes 4 to a common attachment point 7, to which a fourth rope 8 is also connected, to link to a cable 9 fastened to a boat, such that the flat plate 1 can bury at large depth in a soft substrate until it reaches firm ground and stop said boat from moving versus the substrate. The short and the long ropes can rotate by at least 180 degrees around their points of attachment to the flat plate, such that the plate anchor can function the same, no matter on which of its two large sides it rests on the substrate.
