Anchor Roller for Pilot 30
I have a 2004 Pilot 30. The original anchor has been replaced with a Lewmar Delta anchor (14 lbs I believe). The chain comes up through a hole in the pulpit but there is no anchor roller - so the anchor digs into the surface of the pulpit. I would like to install an anchor roller - and wonder if any one has and if so - what anchor roller did you install? I looked on Lewmar - there is one for about $180 but it probably will not work with this layout. And of course the current anchor does not work with the original tensioner - so if people have ideas there - I would appreciate that information. I am in the process or replacing my Lewmar V700 windlass which broke because I did not tie up the anchor while underway and the weight of the anchor finally snapped the spindle form the motor that fits into the gear. Such is life.
