you attach your snubber?

Chain hook, how well does it stay?


Okay sorta till the bow starts to jump around



Carabineer, do you think it is strong enough?



NOpe.

Rolling hitch, how well does it hold on chain?



Darn good



Any thing else?



Lots.......... I use a Trawlex chain shackle through a link and then
connect with an eye splice and thimble.
maybe a pelican hook
or there are some special release hardware ya can use. how about a Sea
Catch Toggle Release.
Just got to get out of Westmarine. Pick up a National Fisherman or an
issue of WorkBoat. go online for either. O, another good place for
"real" marine hardware is Boats and Harbors.

Just a question for those who are interested.
