Anchor Roller

[lcorkum]

Has anyone upgraded their Bow Roller on a B 375 to carry a 25 LB Anchor
Is there a readily available Stainless Built Roller Carrier that adds to the bow?

Good question. Curious why you want to upgrade your bow roller to carry a 25 lb anchor (most anchors for your size boats, like the Manson Supreme, specify a heavier anchor unless you are planning a fluke anchor like a Fortress). I had a 35 lb Manson Supreme on my Hunter 386 and now 60 lb Manson Supreme on my Hunter 46.

I have a CQR 35 on my B323. OEM roller handles it.

@lcorkum You boat is 37 ft 11.3 M It displaces 15400 lb or 7000 Kg
A 25lb anchor might be good for a calm day lunch stop, but I would be seriously concerned about sleeping at night with that sized anchor trying to hold the boat in place.

We each get to equip our boats as we the owner decide. You might look at Mantus Anchors. They build anchors and bow-rollers to manage them. I selected a new anchor and roller from them . They solve my problems here on the "West Coast".

You might also look at the SBO store for ideas. They have anchor rollers listed.

I bet someone means 25 Kg.

25Kg is 55 Lbs... Likely larger than needed for the sized boat.
