Parallax Windlass 

 [ email ] || [ home ]
An overall view of my readily available ground tackle. I have a 45 pound CQR and a 40 pound Danforth on the dual bow rollers. Each is attached to 100 feet of chain and 200 feet of nylon rode. I have had much better success with setting my anchor with the Danforth, and have made this my primary anchor. I have a 68 pound Bulwagga as my storm anchor, but haven't yet decided where and how to store it (it's in my dock box presently.)

This is a rather poor photo of the chainplate for the inner stay, in the V-berth. You can see that it sits amidships, next to the motor for my windlass. I suppose it would be prettier to cover this with a teak box, but I have no problem with looking at the motor just before I nod off!

The windlass, and the hand-held remote that connects with a water-proof plug at the bow. I have a second hand held remote at the helm.
