Interesting? LOL! More like stupid. So stupid that I was inclined
to add a comment to that effect. Using an all-chain rode is tantamount
to using hemp lines and cotton sails. Duh! Hey, folks it's the 21st
century. Get with the program and lose the chain.

More advise from the dry land sailor.

You might have a look at the majority of the world cruising boats as a
large number of them do carry an all chain rode.....

If you ask someone who has actually done a lot of cruising they might
even tell you why.
