Dave,
These are fom the old boat. I made a mock up in wood and traded the fabrication for some floor sanding. I wanted to keep my anchor ready at all times and be able to pick up a mooring at the same time. Material is 1/4" 316L. Note pipe strut for support. Fabricated by a local machinist not a marine shop. Hope it is some help.

Thanks all. This should be a fun project and I will post pics when it's finished!
@Conrad, how do you like the anchorlift product and where did you acquire it?

We purchased it through the local boatyard (Ocean Pacific here in Campbell River) as they did the fabrication and install of the support knee.
We're very happy with it. Being that it self launches and retrieves the anchor, it makes the anchoring process very simple.
Of the various anchoring systems we've had on board different boats over the years, this is by far the best.
Pretty simple setup here.
80lb Manson self launching on a sprit to keep anchor retrieval well clear of the stem, 14mm chain, chain stopper, Maxwell 4000 hydraulic windlass, and sampson post for snubber etc.

The original roller assy wasn't up to frequent use with all chain and a FX-37. This is the original pulpit that has been shortened with a heavy duty custom dual roller set up, it works great and holds up.

What's with all the snouts? They aren't particularly attractive and raise berthing/docking costs.
