Default Chain hook

Jim has brought up a good point. For those of us who us all chain, how do
you attach your snubber?

Chain hook, how well does it stay?

Carabineer, do you think it is strong enough?

Rolling hitch, how well does it hold on chain?

Any thing else?

Just a question for those who are interested.

In another group a fellow suggested using a mainsail reefing hook, the sort
of thing you have fastened at the forward end of your boom. Buy one that
has a good U-shaped curve to it and that will fit through your chain.
Splice some nylon line to it.
