The present invention relates to an anchor weight device comprising a weight element (1) having an upper surface (10), a holder (2) attached to the weight element and extending upwardly from the upper surface, and a wheel (3) rotatably arranged relative the holder and at a distance from the upper surface forming a space (26) for receiving an anchor line (64). The weight device comprises a shackle (4) comprising an intermediate part(42) and a first and a second leg (44, 46) extending from the intermediate part on opposite sides of the wheel and ending at a distance from the peripheral surface of the wheel, and the shackle is rotatably connected to the holder so that the shackle is rotatable between a closed position in which at least one of the legs extend between the wheel and the upper surface of the weight element to secure the anchor line housed in said space (26), and an open position in which the legs are moved away from the upper surface of the weight element so that an opening is formed between the shackle and the upper surface of the weight element to allow the anchor line to enter or leave said space.
