I want to add an anchor roller to my SeaCraft so that I'm not hauling the rode and ground tackle over the gunwale and scratching up the protector below the cleat all the time. I'm not planning to stow the anchor on the roller so I picked up a medium sized fairlead roller with a quick release pin.
Short of moving the bow light, I think the best location for the roller is on the port side of the bow (see photo) with a center cleat to tie off the anchor line. I'm wondering if anyone who's been down this path has any advice on placement or other considerations. TIA.
