<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is always preferable to take the load off the
roller due to the cantilever factor. If rope, run it through the cocks with some
hose as a chafe guard - if chain rode, use a length of nylon twist on a chain
hook run through the chocks with about 4 or 5 ft of slack in the
chain.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT face=arial,helvetica><FONT size=2>When using an anchor
roller, is it preferable to leave the rode passing <BR>through the roller
while at anchor, or to lead it back through the bow chocks <BR>after setting
the anchor? I am concerned about chafe from the sides of the <BR>roller
(Windline URM-1) although the roller wheel seems like a great chafe
<BR>reducing factor. Your thoughts are appreciated. <BR>Thanks, <BR>Joe
