It seems from other migrations of this thread that what's wanted in the
original wasn't a stopper... We have two hawse pipes with all chain on the two primary anchors, a vertical windlass for rope and chain, and no stoppers. Our prior owners made up a short airline cable Y with thimbles and nicopress (wish they'd shrink-wrapped them!!). Three caribiners connect to a pad eye and the two anchor chains. Not a tensioner, but certainly insurance against failure or moving out in lumpy water. That's pretty inexpensive :{)) L8R Skip and Lydia -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig http://tinyurl.com/384p2 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
