A caution when drilling through the deck and into the carpet on the roof of the cuddy - it's VERY tough carpet material - I've broken several drill bits getting the carpet fiber wound around the bit.

It might be bit too small for my anchor , Here are the dimensions from the Mantus site ... its the 13lb one

I think the length is a bit short, but that can be adjusted, the bigger concern I have is the shank might be too big to fit through the loop over the roller.
Mantus has a bow roller for the anchor, but its about $270. These are the dimensions of their bow roller

I could be wrong and you can possibly confirm for me , but the height on that loop is less than 5" correct? Bases on their specs, it appears that I would need that much space. I will also measure my shank today too to confirm.


** regarding Carpet ** I just removed the entire carpet from the cuddy It was oily and smelly and I just found that the cuddy was much cleaner with it off. Thanks for that tip though..
