Default All chain rode is for old men

so ... why did you bring it up? the discussion was about the unethical
behavior of weak and/or lazy men unwilling to lift an anchor.


Some chain is stronger than some...... uh, (sic) rope....


logging chain IS stronger than window sash cord, but that is not relevant to
this discussion.


I merely pointed out the meaninglessness of your comment. Most
anchors are the weak link in the rode. My 23 foot boat uses a 13#
anchor rated at 1800#.... much lower than either chain or line.
