We have been at anchor over 5 months now and twice our anchor shackle got a bit caught on the chain. So before bringing it up on the bow roller I free it up. Last time it all got caught up, I broke the Shurhold boat hook attachment trying. This time I thought I could be gentler, still broke the plastic boat hook. Wrong tool obviously! We use the boat hook to bring in the flopper stopper (Magma Rock N Roll Stabilizer) before leaving an anchorage, among other things. So we made a new one. Used a shackle and duck tape. Works to bring in the flopper stopper.
