Mike,
I think that with the proper siezing and some heat shrink, Joe's would do fine in 30 to 40 knots with the C Dory--but I am sticking to my tried and true 3 strand over the chain splice

--since I don't have any problems with the windlass jamming. Joe has a different windlass, and I do belive that in his case, he will do better with the rope to chain weave, similar to what he devised. However I would weave the third strand down the chain, either split or whole, as in the illustrations:
