Description

Did you know that we have been sleeping on 2nd hand chain for years? back in Saint Martin, Iain offered to re-wire a cruisers boat to ehlp them out. in return, the boat owner offered us their old anchor chain. you might not think it but anchor chain is really expensive and when he opened up the locker and saw 65m of stainless steel chain, Iains eyes jumped out his head. The owner was insistent that we take the weight off his boat and we were only too happy to oblige and it has served us well. until now.

As we look towards the next few years of sailing, we expect to find ourselves in even deeper anchorages where 65m of chain simply isnt’ enough to keep Indioko safe. so we need to upgrade to a longer chain and think we have found that in our new partner Cromox.

they have offered to help us out with a new 100m long anchor chain that is exactly matched to our windlass system. the catch, we have to pay for shipping and that heavy pallet will cost us a small fortune. but without it, we may be drifting in our sleep!
