Stern Anchor Fitting for an 11m Catamaran

rivonia · 08-10-2009, 04:19

On our Solaris Sunrise catamaran (LOA 11m) we need to fit a stern anchor.

The problem is that the main sheet traveller is fitted to the deck between the two hulls and so we cannot fit anything there.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Peter

Suggest installing in one of the hulls, as you will most probably use a bridal so it ok to launch it asymmetric.

I am lucky, I am building so I can arrange space, however I did seriously consider this arrangement.

thanks for your reply - we are now looking at having a fixed platform between the hulls where we can put a fitting for the stern anchor.
