When we first got our Sceptre about 6 years ago I installed a deck hatch in the foredeck.
That was a gamechanger. Allowed us (i.e. my wife) to work the deck without having to actually go out on it.
We used to just drop the anchor by hand but about a year or so ago I installed an electric Lewmar windlass.
That was one of the best decisions ever.
Expensive but worth it. (Sorry, no pics of the windlass install, but you can see the hatch in the pics below. Unless google photos is screwing with me again...)
My Sceptre also came to me with a really nice welded ss rail and a nice big teak pulpit.
That helped a little too.
