the last one bit the dust

[canman]

Hi All, After loosing my last anchor on the last trip out, one of those galvanised folding 4 bladed ones I thought I better get some made for the coming season.
Bought a legnth of 10mm round mild steel bar and set about welding, then a coat of silver paint, and hung them out to dry on the assembly line

Nice job mate....

Dont leave them there too long Arthur or you lass will hang the washing on them...

 

[canman]

I had to take the washing of the line so I could hang them up. This is the exact look on her face.....

 

[The Jester]

Just the one ring on the tail, no need to trip them, just a steady pull with the boat engine and bend them out if stuck.

Pretty much same as ours, found some road pins to make ours tho
