I have read the end of the anchor chain must be secured to the yacht so that when fully extended it is not possible to lose the lot over the side. One suggestion was to use rope so that in the event of the anchor becoming stuck and the need to leave an anchorage urgently the rope can be cut.
Although my anchor locker is very strong I don't think it is strong enough to tether the anchor chain to.so I plan to tether it to the for'd under sole rib(?) using a s/s rod. The rod would be attached to the chain using a "D" shackle. (The floor/sole in the for'd cabin would have to be raised slightly to do this.)
Is there anything wrong with this plan?
