ANCHORING

The primary WORKING ANCHOR is a 55 lb Delta and is attached to 300 ft chain passed through the
deck from the starboard ANCHOR LOCKER. The locker can be accessed through the foredeck. There is
an anchor keeper. Release it first and then you can lower the anchor from any of the three stations. We
would prefer that you raise the anchor from the foredeck to keep an eye on it when it breaks water so that
it does not swing back into the boat's bow.
The WINDLASS POWER SWITCH is located at the lower helm station to the right and below the
wheel.
There is an Electronic Windlass Controller and Counter for chain rodes (Auto Anchor 500C) at both
stations. This can be used to lower or raise the anchor. (The digital display of the number of feet of rode
out is currently not working.) Additionally, there is a switch at both stations that can be used to lower or
raise the anchor. Finally, there are 2 foot controls beneath the windlass.
At the bow, tap gently on the 'down' foot control to lower the anchor. If necessary, guide the anchor
over the anchor roller to prevent binding on the pulpit.
Let out sufficient ANCHOR RODE before setting the anchor. Colored markers (cable ties) are placed at
100 feet and every 20 feet thereafter on the chain, indicating amount of rode. (The digital readout is not
working). Put down at least a 4 to 1 scope (80 feet for 20 feet of water); back the anchor in with a short
burst from the engine. Then let out additional scope dependent upon conditions.
There is a spring line in the port anchor locker. If you wish to use it, after you have set the anchor, hook
the stainless "S" clip to the chain and let out about 20' additional feet of chain, securing the end of the
spring line to the Sampson post. The chain should be slack and the tension is transferred to the spring
line. Make sure that the anchor roller lock is engaged.
Before raising the anchor, ALWAYS start the engine as it uses large amounts of power. Turn 'on' the
WINDLASS SWITCH and as the boat moves toward the anchor, press the 'up' control to take up slack
line. Give the windlass short rests as you are pulling it up. Place yourself in position to guide the anchor
onto the roller. As the anchor rises, be careful not to allow it to swing against the hull.
Using the hose and fresh water faucet in the port anchor locker, wash down the anchor and chain if they
are coming in muddy.
Reconnect the keeper between the windlass and chain. Close the plastic covers on the FOOT PEDAL
CONTROLS. Turn "off" the WINDLASS POWER SWITCH.
