Mike installs a custom bow sprit on a C&C 39 to support a 60-pound Lewmar claw anchor.0:09 He routes the primary anchor chain through a new barrel roller and secures it to prevent the load from resting directly on the bow sprit.0:17 To manage anchor loads, he constructs a snubber using two lines with chafe protectors made from repurposed fire hose.2:23 The snubber lines lead through deck chocks and cleat off on either side of the bow, transferring the tension away from the roller.2:58 As a secondary safety measure, he shackles the chain to the boat's toe rail, ensuring the anchor remains attached even if the snubber fails.3:18 He also secures the stowed anchor to the bow sprit with additional lines to prevent movement during heavy weather.3:35 The current setup uses 95 feet of 3/8-inch galvanized chain, with plans to eventually install a windlass and 270 feet of rode.1:31
