[Public-List] No Anchors

[Rod Symmes]

Hi Clay;
     I would suggest that you make fast to the strongest member available using the strongest method practical and then treat it as though it is too flimsy and always fasten to a deck cleat so IT takes all the strain.  The attachment in the locker is ONLY for preventing the loss of the bitter end while running out your rode. ( they don't call it that for nothing ; -)


Cheers,  Rod

By the way, if you don't mind me asking, how are people attaching the loose
end of their anchor rode inside the chain locker?  Mine was not attached to
anything when I bought it and there is nothing on the inside sturdy enough
to attach to...  any ideas?
