The crew of NV replaces their anchor swivel with a direct shackle connection to the anchor, citing concerns about swivel reliability and potential imbalance under load.2:17 They select a 10mm shackle, ensuring the pin diameter is sufficient to handle perpendicular forces without damaging the windlass gypsy.3:32 The setup includes 106 meters of galvanized chain marked with spray paint at 10-meter intervals for depth tracking.7:23 To ensure safety at the end of the rode, they splice 20 meters of 8-strand mooring line to the chain, providing necessary stretch and preventing the chain from jamming or exiting the Maxwell windlass under tension.6:47 The installation routes the rode from the chain locker through the bowsprit, ensuring it remains clear of other deck hardware.9:20 The crew emphasizes that the rode must be long enough to allow the anchor to pull horizontally, and they recommend using a rope compatible with the windlass gypsy to prevent mechanical failure during retrieval.12:16
