			V21 has two compartments in the center.....large to the rear, smaller in front.I keep rode in the smaller in front, anchor on top of the rode.  No banging against anything.
 
 There's the tiny compartment in the very front of the cuddy........but too small for anchor and rode.
 
 I have 600' of rode, approx. 15' of chain and danforth type anchor.  All fits in fine.
 
 That said,  since it's a " husband - wife " difference of opinion,  all I can do is wish you good luck.
