End for ending an anchor chain is common practice and in many
countries/places a chain can be re-galvanized rather than replacing if
not worn excessively.

We looked at that the last time in the yard, and the cost of getting it to
someplace which could do it - and the application, of course, was close to
new chain.

As there are issues about coverage, and sticking together, perhaps, at any
of the places I discovered relative to Vero Beach FL, I elected to go with
new chain, and got $200 for the best 140' of the old, mitigating the cost of
new.

I wish it weren't so, but perhaps by the time we get to shore again, things
will have changed.
