Thanks Chumbucket, I don't want to get too far ahead of myself on this one (anchor roller/bow pulpit), and I probably should start a separate topic for this in the modifications forum: but I don't think I have enuff forward deck space for a suitable roller much less a cleat. Really don't want a cleat off to the side. I want my setup to be operable when I am alone at the controls, and also have the backbone to straighten out a serious wreck anchor. This project is very much in the design incubation stage, at this time.
