Ground Tackle

anchor locker

December 2008. Anchor locker.

Here is a picture of an anchor locker. Moonwind has two anchors, both Danforth-Fortress-Fluke style. One medium size and one very small, good only for a dinghy. She needs a bigger bow anchor and an anchor roller plus a good CQR anchor.

April 2009. New anchor and chain-rode combination

I purchased a 35-pound CQR, the best of all anchors ever. It holds! I also bought a new 15-foot chain 150-foot rope combo.

July 2009. Another spare CQR

In July I added another 35-pound CQR because when anchored on two anchors, one CQR and another Danforth, Danforth always drags and is of no use on its own anyway.
