Anchors away!


When we bought the boat it had a great anchor but it was located in the back of the boat in a bucket in one of the cockpit benches. It obviously had never been used. Mark had a hard time lifting it in and out, over the rail, and twisting and turning his body to make it work. He ended up wrenching his back. There has got to be a better way. So he looked around and found a hanger to go at the bow pulpit. Scary as it was, he cut a hole in the boat and installed a deck pipe for the chain to go into a locker in the v-berth below. Oh boy that works great. What a wonderful improvement. It sure makes it nicer when we decide to anchor for a swim and lunch.
