| Chain question
I am about to order a new Lewmar V4 windlass ,anchor chain and rope. I am leaning to 200' ACCO 3/8" G40 with 200' of 3/4" three strand nylon. I am also thinking of all chain. and yet another thought is 200' of ACCO G40 1/2" chain with 3/4" nylon. My boat is 61' and weighs 32 tons. my main anchor is a 88lb. Delta . What is the best setup for cruising the caribean?
