Hi Tug,
Glad to hear that it all has come together.
This weekend, "Alma's Only" inspected my installation and pointed out the need to put a shackle between the anchor and the swivel to relieve side loading.
That's my next step.

I need to try another anchor too. When out last Friday, I put down the little stern anchor to keep from drifting too much and it snagged on something on the bottom. It was getting pretty late so I put a gallon jug on it, marked it with the GPS and will go back and try to pull it out tomorrow night now that both engines are running well.
It's not much, just a little 5# danforth with 4' of chain and about 75' of half inch nylon.
Charlie
