Anchor Roller for Vision 32

[Jack]

I have a Vision 32, and the Anchor roller is way too small. The roller is an integral part of the plate making up the stem of the forestay, so I don't think any of the anchor rollers on the market will fit, and am looking at having a new one made. I would like to have one that could hold the anchor, too. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Anchor Roller headache

I agree with you totally,it is inadequate.Have installed an anchor roller for a 35 lbs Bruce with 65 feet of chain.I purchased a stock (West Marine) bow roller, and reinforced it.URM-3, page 544 West Marine Catalogue 2000.I drilled a large whole (size of theemergency tiller cover) on the portside of the chain locker.Closed it withthe similar cover. This was made in order to secure the through bolts drilled through the stemand the fiberglass.Works perfect. easely done.Let me know if you need further details
