Yeap, I gotcha'. And with the pulpit rig, once the anchor is released, where do you make the line fast?, on an additional cleat closer to the slider? I would store the anchorline in the locker, but after the anchor is set I'm not understanding or seeing in the pics where to make the line fast (tie it).

this is the set up on my boat. the line ties off on the cleat on the pulpit itself and goes down the deck pipe to the anchor locker below. when i bought the boat, the previous owner was keeping the anchor in the fish box in the deck and dragging it over the cuddy to the bow. this was not practical for me, i was doing a lot diving then and had 30' of anchor chain to contend with, this system works great.
