All - Is anyone using one of the newer roll bar style anchors in the standard port side bow roller? I haven't found anything in the archives related to the original bow roller.
I printed the Mantus 45lb anchor template to see if it would fit my roller. It seemed that the roll bar would interfere with the original navigation light fixture installed on my bow pulpit. If I remove the light fixture, it looks like the roll bar would just clear the mounting plate.
With that said, it's very difficult to determine if an anchor will work in the roller by using a paper anchor.
I'm currently using a CQR, but hope to "upgrade."
