Ok, I know what some of you are thinking ... but my question pertains to the ID of a
Deck Pipe for the
anchor chain.
I'm installing a 'manual' MUIR Neptune
windlass with a
gypsy for 1/4" BBB Chain.
I need a simple
Deck Pipe eg: Straight pipe with a deck-mount flange. I've purchased a couple of types from the Chandler but, they're not exactly what I'm looking for. Therefor, it appears my only option is to get one made at the local machine shop.
Now, I know there's a formula for determining the ID ... It is a multiple of the chain size. But what that multiple is temporarily escapes me. Would any of you long time sailor's have the number for me? Thanks .....
