Wish I had a better photo for you, but this anchor is situated on the rails with a cradle that accepts the base of the shank. Hopefully, someone else has a better shot, but I'll keep looking.
Then, you'll want to figure out how to neatly store the chain and rode....

I use a Windline bracket with my stern anchor (Fortress) - Might work with other Danforth anchors as well.
THis is the one I use, but the have other styles: https://windline.com/index.php?act=viewdetails&mod=121

Depending on the size. West marine sells a set of brackets that the anchor bottom rod fits in with a locking tab. Stores the anchor upside down.
Thank You
I appreciate your response and your time in sending photo. Wetass provided a good source for the bracket which I will get.....my chain and rode are kept in a large plastic bucket in the stern locker which I will bring up on the stern deck when we go into anchorage and where we need to set stern anchor. This location of the stern anchor should make deploying a bit easier...as I am closer to my outside winch which I use to tighten up stern to dropped anchor.

Here is another option.
