[quote=MN3][quote]How does everyone tie off their anchor line? I wrap mine around my front crossbeam but that's not ideal. I would like to have a true anchor cleat to cleat off to. Have to be careful where you store it on board as well, at best it will pierce your tramp at worst it will pierce your body.[/quote]
I use the holes in my bow tips from my spinnaker bridals - i can't recall how i reeve it when using the spin (i haven't used my spin in 2 years - since i had beam issues - i plan to put it back on soon)
It is important to have a bridal for your anchor or your boat will dance around a bunch
i store my anchor in my extra large tramp front pocket (carefully) and have never had it rip the tramp - but it is possible if careless - and it can scratch up the front beam if not careful - i usually put some non skid tape up there to protect the beam
i used to store it in a small tool bag that was secured to the tramp
i have a small plastic clip on my front beam area (tied to a hike-strap). when the anchor is in the tramp pocket this clip has the perfect length of line to achieve it's purpose, to grab all the slack in the anchor line and keep it from dragging / splashing[/quote]
