Single Handed Anchoring off the bow

SNIP I agree, except for the size. I have found windlasses to be a bother with modern designs at 32' or below, say about 5 tons. In the rare cases where we're leaving an anchorage in enough wind to make hauling difficult, either Pat twiddles the motor controls or I shift the rode to the stern and haul with the genny winch. How do you handle this situation, if you're the only person on the boat? I mean, how do you get the anchor in place with the chain/rode, without damaging the freeboard? -- Flemming Torp Gimle/DEN-61 |
