Title: Second Anchor Roller
Post by: Captain Bri on December 09, 2011, 08:56:12 AM

Has anyone found a good fitting anchor roller that will bolt on the Pearson 323 platform for a second anchor?  If so could you provide a part number and/or photo? 

Custom work (like this  project  (http://www.pearson323.com/projects/anchor_platform.pdf) by Cliff) is out of my budget so I am looking for an off-the-shelf solution that is strong and still looks good.

I suspect that any bow roller that you find would do the job.  Check out availability at marine salvage places.  I bought a salvage bow roller at Bacon's in Annapolis but have seen many others at other places.  Mounting is just a matter of drilling a few holes and a few bolts or screws.  Just make sure that the roller will allow your anchors to sit side by side, one a bit further forward than the other.  I'll post a picture tomorrow.
