The anchor chain bracket we use to hold the chain down into the Lewmar H3 Anchor Windlass while dead dropping the 45 lb CQR anchor and 90' of 3/8 Acco chain gets tremendous stress. This gets the twists out but is a lot of stress on the bracket. So we are adding two support brackets for next season.
This is the bracket as it sits now. We designed this last season and had this made and installed it.
Designing the bolt holes to hold it down.
Sizing up with the bolt through it.
Debbie and I decided that the port bracket will need to go on the inside of the hole. Here it is shown on the outside. The bolt is not long enough for the extra thickness of the new stainless.
Sent from the machine shop letting us know they are ready.
They are stainless steel and they are polished.
Now to see how they fit!.
Almost looks like artwork!
