Thread: Bow Protection From Anchor Chain

    I never use the front, always store my anchor in the fish bin in the rear of the boat when not in use, and always lower/retrieve from the rear side. Much easier and better control from here

    I had the same problem with chips, I went to clark rubber and brought 1.5m of "C"channel rubber similar material to door rubbers sika flexed it evenly ea side of the bow it looks neat and as if it was meant to be there as I ran it from the first bow rail stanchion on either side also acts as a bumper when poking in and around mangroves

    I have a similar issue with the chain on the signature.Ive given it considerable thought and will try a couple of shower mats with the suction pads underneath, cut to shape and stuck either side of the half hawse section where chain leaves the locker.If all fails miserably it hasn't cost much and back to the drawing board.Jim
