Improvements in a trickle charging system for a boat are presented. The anchor charger is a solar panel that harnesses sunlight to trickle charging a boat through the anchor light connection of a boat. The anchor charger helps to ensure that the battery is fully charged prior to boating & also provide some charging action while out on the water. This helps to ensure that proper battery maintenance is provided on a consistent basis. The anchor charger connect to a standard 2 pin female anchor light connection which is installed on primarily all recreational boats that normally powers an anchor light that is required on small vessels while they are at anchor. The solar collector is mounted on a pole having an adjustable swivel mount to allow the boater to position the solar collector to be adjusted for angle and spin to collect optimal sun exposure.
