Default Spade Anchor question

I sure appreciate all the kind words (mumble, shuffle, blush) and would
like to use them on my web site if it is OK.

At the same time I would like some feedback on a few questions that have
come up:

How is the anchor riding on your roller? Did you have to make any
modifications?


Glenn,

You would be most welcome to include my comments on your web site. My
boat is a 43 foot steel hull and deck, Mauritius 43 designed by Bruce
Roberts-Goodson, center cockpit, cutter-ketch, raised poop, about
32,000 lbs.

I got the 66 lb steel spade from you. It fits very well on my roller.
Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how well it holds; just after
purchasing the anchor a death in my family has kept me from sailing
this boat for a couple of years. Hopefully that will change soon.

I have always appreciated your good advice freely shared on this and
other news groups. I hope that you can keep "feeding your sailing
kitty." How about other boat parts or equipment? Got any deals on
isolation transformers?
