Hey Josh

When we brought our Alera out from lake Ontario, as part of the fresh to salt water conversion and re commissioning we got a new anchor and had the yard install a windlass. I had to replace all of the major heavy gauge 12V wiire and it seems like a good time to get it done.

We went with a Quick Genius 1000 windless and a Rocna 20KG anchor w 100' of 5/16 high test chain and 200' three strand rode.and real anchor. In hindsight, since most of our anchoring has been in 25'-40' locations, I might have opted for another 50' of chain. But this seems to be working well for us. We went from hardly anchoring at all to spending about 50% of our time out on the hook.

I'm heading down to the boat tomorrow. Let me know if you want some pics...we 37+ folks have to stick together!!!

While we're on the topic of anchors, how do those of you with windlasses
have then mounted.  I've considered one but can't figure out a good
solution for my 37+.  Pictures would be awsome.
