stern anchor systems

Hello everyone,

I have been gazing at the lovely high cockpit combings at the stern,
and admiring their comfort and the safety they provide, but also
wondering how to set up a stern anchoring system, assuming a straight
lead to the jib sheet winches. What are people doing out there to
solve this problem? I thought of mounting a roller on top of the
combing but that doesn't look easy. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Christine

Hi Christine, it\'s very simple, you can buy ready made nylon rollers that
fit right on the tubes. I\'m not quit sure where you are (country) on our
side (Continental Europe) they are in the Compass catalog.
Take care,

Christine, Consider the Ankor Roller. I believe they are made in Sweden.
They were offered a few years back to members of the Vega Association and we
didn't get one. Before our Mexico trip we did acquire one and I loved it.
Very compact and frees up a lot of lazzarete space. Can't say enough about
how much I liked it. Walt
