Cosa tratta questo video
Steve builds a custom rope bag for Arabella's 100-foot nylon anchor rode using scrap canvas offcuts, replacing a nylon stuff sack that lacked drainage, handles, and a way to secure the bitter-end loop.▶ 0:20 The new bag is wider and squatter than the original — closer to bucket-shaped — with a mesh bottom panel for drainage, a webbing handle on the bottom, a second handle on the side, and a clip-and-webbing keeper at the top that holds the rode's eye splice exposed and ready to grab.▶ 1:54 A folded strip of canvas sewn around the drawstring opening, with webbing chafe caps at each end, cinches the top shut.▶ 2:26 Steve threads black thread for the structural bar-tack stitching on the load-bearing handles, then winds a fresh blue bobbin to finish the assembly seams.▶ 4:18 He flakes the rode into the finished bag rather than coiling it, noting that flaked line runs out cleanly with almost no risk of tangling.▶ 11:21 The bag fits the rode snugly — Steve notes he could have cut it slightly larger — but drains, carries easily, and keeps the loop clipped and accessible.▶ 12:26
