i wonder if it is bringing power from your outboard’s alternator BACK to your batteries when the engine is running…..

Well that’s fantastic news! I’ll try it out. Thank you!

Hi! Thank you very much. I was thinking of attaching to the cleat in the same fashion. The problem is that I don’t think the shank of the anchor will fit under my roller furler! Do you have a furler? Nothing was attached in the video….

New member. New (to me) 2006M. I purchased a 10kg Rocna to replace the Danforth that came with the boat. I did this without considering whether or not it would fit!!! I could buy and install the extended anchor roller from Bluewater Yachts….but I did not consider that the fat, flat shank of the Rocna doesn’t look like it will fit under my foresail furler. I am considering adding a couple of plates on the end of the anchor roller base that would drop the roller down an inch or two….that might give me enough clearance for the furler. I am not super keen on jury-rigging some pulpit rail mount that would put all that weight on the pulpit.

Is there anybody in the club that has a 10kg Rocna AND a foresail furler….AND has successfully figured out how to get around this problem? Is there a part available that is just “bolt-on”?

I really want to use the Rocna. I just didn’t anticipate this problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
