I had a roller like shown in the picture, and was fine, once in a while the anchor would get stuck and you had to give it a little push.
Hamer and irslot bought tilting rollers, so when you undid the rope the weightof the anchor would tilt it down to the water and off she go real easy!!
If I decide to add one to thenewboat I will use a tilting roller.
