Anyone know the cost (approximately) of having a yard install a bow
roller and electric/manual windless to a 38 foot boat?


SWAG - $150/hour x 5 ?


This whole thing is a troll. Who has ever seen a 38' sailboat without a
bow roller?

In shopping for a boat, I have been amazed how many have neither.


Well, I suppose it is conceivable that there may be some people who never
anchor and never even think they need to anchor so perhaps they carry a
light aluminium anchor and no chain and think that is Ok even for a 38'
boat..
But this side of the pond they would be laughed out of court with a 38'
sailboat so ill equipped and certainly would not be able to get insurance.
But I still think this 'Janet O' Leary' is another troller tho' I gave 'her'
the benefit of the doubt by giving some good information in reply to 'her'
first post.
But ever since then 'her' posts have always been vague generalised
questions apparently just to get discussions going. If, as 'she' first said
someone is 'giving' her a boat why have we not been told what make and type
so that we can home in on some specific points?.
I am out of this one therefore.
'She' can buy some books and read about the basics therein as far as I am
concerned..
