Anchor Locker in 405

Post by sailtosteam »

Hello All,
I am getting new anchor chain and rope for my 405. Looking in the anchor locker on how to secure the rope, I see the is no eye bolt or secure point to attach the rode. Totally surprised. What have you done? Is there sufficient structure in the locker floor to install a hard point?
I am also considering a Rocna 20 or 45 lb Manson Supreme. Anyone have these on their boat and how did you set them up?
Your comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Many folks just use a large knot. I always knot my rode around a 2" galvanized ring to prevent the accidental uh oh.
