According to this article by Gordon West you really are better off having one 
seawater ground:

If this is not possible you might want to look at a KISS radial system:

Stus-List Bow Roller and possibly Windlass for the 1977 29 MKI

2014-02-21 Thread Paul Kunicki
Hello everyone,

I am presently preparing for a haul-out during which I would like to have an 
anchor roller installed. I found a photo of a 1977 29 MKI named Anonymous here: 
http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/doityourself/bowroller/bowroller.htm

Unfortunately, the link no longer works.

Form the photo, it appears that there is both a danforth and plow style anchors 
hanging from the bow and it is not obvious whether or not a Windlass is 
installed? I  would love to know if this was a custom built or if it was a 
product available off the shelf. 

Any info on what roller/bracket and mounting method is best for hanging a 22lb 
delta or similar plow type anchor on a smaller C&C like this would be very 
helpful.

Thanks for your time and patience,
