Re: Who likes their chain stopper? I need a recommendation for 3/8's chain...

I installed one last year. The pawl seems to flip up when pulling up the chain from the vibration. May try an correct this with a small piece of bungee cord. Since I single hand the boat it should make hoisting the anchor a less traumatic experience especially when the winds pickup: THE BIANKA LOG BLOG: SO MUCH FOR THAT!

Anchor Accessories

These stoppers work fine and won't significantly lighten your wallet.
