Depends upon the chain. I must admit stainless steel anchor chain is a definite turn-on because it doesn't rust and it seems to shed mud and other bottom goo better because of the polished surface. It also looks so classy on the foredeck. Too bad it costs an arm and a leg. CN |

![]() "All that chain laying about?" You must think me a putz or something. I, too, keep most of the chain in the chain locker. However, there is the matter of the length that lies between the hawsepipe and the anchor itself. This amounts to a couple of feet on my yacht. Also there is the back-up anchor and rode which must be readily at hand for fast deployment. This I keep in a loose loop tied on the port side of the forward deck. The stainless steel chain is part of the rode of course. Any sailor who relies primarily on a single anchor and does not have a back-up ready to deploy immediately will sooner or later come to grief.
