Hi folks,
My
anchor windlass is located between the main
hull and starboard ama. The
anchor locker is not deep enough. I can install a chain
wheel at the present location for the
windlass to rotate the chain 90 degrees, then move the windlass to a position where the chain can drop into a locker in the main
hull. Or move the windlass to the conventional position on the bow. This would put 250 lbs of chain plus the
anchor and attendant
gear in the bow. The idea with moving the windlass to its present position was to get the weight out of the bow.
The
boat is a 38 foot Cross
Any suggestions?
Rich
