The transformation has well and truely been underway from LR to "Fatenhappy".
I consider I am fairly savy around boats, but am still trying to once and for all put pave to what this fore deck furniture is on on our cat ... I am presuming an anchor deck storage, but any that I know don't fit (believe me I've tried)?
By the way .... the cheese and kisses recons Fatenhappy is the ugliest garden gnome shes ever seen .... personally, can't grasp the concept or understand what shes on about ...
My response ..... "Love the man love his boat"
Hey you young fellas take note .... you can get away with it too, when you are an old fat old bauld bugger who still knows how to appreciate the better half .....
Re the positioning ... nothing a crane and a bit of cash can't fix .....

It is for a Danforth style sand anchor. Slots in the top, the triangle is where the tips of the flutes sit and the rear is where the shank goes. Did you remove something around the chain/rope hole to protect glass?
Thanks ... removed the feed through for the bitter end, but just to have it rechromed along with other bits and pieces as quality items like that just aren't produced any more.
Interesting ... all the fittings removed for clean up and electroplating seem to be brass !!
Cheers

If they are good quality they will be copper nickle,electroplating put's a thin layer of copper over to smooth out any small imperfection's.That piece missing would be called a Hauser Pipe and yes lot's of that stuff nowaday's is chromed plastic,polished s/s 316 is the go if you can get it made.

Re chroming brass fittings is something I do quite often.
As good as new, slightly cheaper, but the key thing is they fit back where they came from.
One of my biggest problems is getting brand new fittings to match where old fittings came from.
Cleats, Bollards, Bilge Pump Housings, Switch Panels, Aerials ... to name just a few that always give trouble.
