We looked at that the last time in the yard, and the cost of getting it

close to new chain.
As there are issues about coverage, and sticking together, perhaps, at
any of the places I discovered relative to Vero Beach FL, I elected to
go with new chain, and got $200 for the best 140' of the old, mitigating
the cost of new.
I wish it weren't so, but perhaps by the time we get to shore again,
things will have changed.
Where did you find a taker for your old chain - Sailorman at Lauderdale?
No, forum and craigslist ads; someone came up to me in the boatyard the day
before he was going to leave - he dragged the chain over to his dock (we
were close to the docks); I expect it was a boating forum.
Sailorman is too far for 150+ pounds of shipping to make worthwhile, even if
they offered enough to warrant going through the process.
