   | how do you set up your anchor rode?
I have 3/4- (two seprate rodes) and 5/8s- 3 strand nylon going to 5/16 chains , im wondering the best way to mate the two together,(line to chain) ive seen both ways done. Ive always done the brade to the themble and then a shakle to the chain. im not concerned about it not going through the winlass, because I can lift it up over when needed. On the other hand if its really stronger to go direct to chain I would give it a try, how do you do yours? |
