Has anyone ever installed an anchor roller on a Hunter 285? Been thinking about it. No, actually my back has. Thought it might make pulling the anchor a bit easier. Not a whole lot of room at the bow because of where the anchor locker and the rib roller are located. Gib roller is dead center so I imagine that the roller would have to be mounted off center if there is room. If anyone has done this? I'd love to hear or see (a pic?) how you did it. Thanks!

What I did.

I have a 1980 Hunter 30 and there is not much room forward of the anchor locker. However, I was able to fit Simpson-Lawrence KBR-20 anchor roller, set at an angle next to the stem fitting. I had to cut away one of the jib reef hooks. It works just fine.
