About this anchor and trident maritime security star
Security on the water needs insignia that crews, dock workers and visiting captains can place at a glance. This star does it with nautical vocabulary: an anchor for the port, crossed tridents for strength at sea and a compass star for navigation. Navy, silver and gold match the colors mariners already associate with authority, so the patch reads as official without borrowing anyone's seal.
Order it as shown or adapt it: put your company or terminal name in the lettering, swap the tridents for crossed oars, or stitch the whole star in subdued tones for night watch. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Maritime security anchor patch questions
Can our company name replace the sample lettering?
Yes. All three lettering lines restitch to your company, terminal or team name, and the 4-hour mockup shows the wording around the star.
Is PVC better than embroidery for work on the water?
PVC sheds water and salt and wipes clean, so it suits float coats and deck gear. Embroidery remains the standard for uniform shirts — many teams order both.
Can the tridents change to something else?
Yes. Crossed oars, a ship's wheel or your company emblem can replace them, redrawn at no art charge.
Will the star points hold their shape with a merrowed edge?
At 4 inches across and up, yes. For smaller sizes we can switch to a hot-cut edge so each point stays sharp.
How do I request edits to this star?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the tridents, pin notes on the lettering and switch to a subdued colorway. The marked-up star attaches to your quote.
