My boat has a nearly plumb stem with very little flare in the bow. Most dutch barges carry their anchor in a hawse pipe. Maybe a different term. Because the bow is plumb and there is no flare, the anchor can hit the bow and cause damage when being lowered from a pulpit. Any ideas or suggestions?
Here's a steel boat very similar to mine and it shows how the anchor is usually carried. The recommended anchor for my boat is 125lbs so it's not like it's a light weight. Also my boat is fiberglass laminated wood.
