The guy i bought my boat from was a good friend and i dove off of it for a couple of years before i bought it from him. He kept anchor set up in the in deck fishbox. I hated it. PIA to open hatch and carry all that mess to the bow. As divers, we had at least 20 ft of chain plus couple hundred feet of line. When i bought the boat, i moved it all forward to the cuddy and stowed it in a fish basket( a HEAVY duty laundry basket). That was a lot easier to work with, but kept the cabin a soggy mess. Then i broke down and got the pulpit. That's the best thing i did after getting the Bimini and curtains.
By the , your wife is right, no matter the question
