I love my H26 but have been wishing it had an anchor roller. I've been envious of the anchor roller that the 260's come with. There didn't seem to be an easy way to install one on the H26. I just finished this mod. It was easy to do and didn't even require drilling any new holes in the boat. I haven't tried it yet, but it's very sturdy. I think it will work well, and I think it looks good too!
I think the size fits nicely. I drilled 2 new holes to allow the existing u-bolt to go thru and simply used the u-bolt to fasten it down. This is a SeaLux 316 Stainless Steel Bow Anchor Roller with quick release pin.

I know some H26's connect their head stay to the u-bolt. I had previously moved my head stay connection to the tang shown in the picture below, freeing up the u-bolt. But I think if you use an extension for your head stay to the u-bolt, this would still work for you.
