Sure....I'll get you sum more pics in a few days.......Suffolk huh? I guess your about 2 hours away & south from me here on the Shore. Relocating the anchor has many pluses....the one I like is not puting gouges and scrapes underneath that bow flare when anchoring or de-anchoring. And its always ready to drop, just bring up the anchor line secure it to the shackle and let her go. This arrangement worked very well with my old 20 so it was a no brainer. I leave the anchor chain on the deck all the time, just bring up the anchor line from the locker down below. I was going to install a small hawse pipe like on the 20 but I decided against it. The 21's have a little room up there on the bow to work with. But I just run the anchor line under the windshield in the sliding hatch channel. The center windshield will close over it no problem. I also installed a s/s gripe to hold the anchor in against the roller. Dave

Thanks for the great compliments guys.....Yeah Reel I added a few things like you mentioned, I put a raw water strainer in line on the seacock down below, replaced all the plastic thru hulls with bronze, new vhf s/s mount & antenna, new tach, volt meter, rectifier regulator (only because tach was sparadic), rear bolsters, new (nylon)cockpit drains, relocated bow lights for anchor mount, yeah new seats(gotta be comfy), oh yeah and a new trailer! :) not because the original 96 one was bad, ohhh noooo, a roller trailer is more suited here on the shore due to our shallow ramps. The 150 starts right up every time and pushes her effortlessly......Once and a while you come across a super deal that you feel good about, this was one of those deals :) Dave
