Hello all.... so upgrading my anchor chain. I currently have 3/8bbb which weighs 1.6lbs per foot, a working strength of 2,650 and a cost of $4.70 per foot. G4 is an option with a replacement gypsy and it weighs1.04lbs per foot, has a working strength of 3,900 and a cost of $3.40 per foot.
I currently have 100 ft and want to move up to 250 ft so I’m terms of weight it would be 400lbs vs 260lbs. All around better for cheaper unless I guess one needs the extra chain weight or just want to use less chain and have a greater weight.
Opinions greatly appreciated.... thanks.
Greg
