[Rhodes22-list] Anchor rode storage

[Mark Kaynor]

Doug,

We keep Raven's rode and anchor in a mesh bag in the laz - ala Fred Kaiser &
Mary Lou Troy. It's a West Marine Anchor Rode Bag
(http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=
10001&langId=-1&catalogId=10001&productId=12072). 

Mark

Rhodies, where and how you store your anchor rode? 

I have 200' of 3/8" line with 15' of chain. I ordered Stan's anchor package
option with the Danforth mounted on the bow rail and rode storage in the
small forepeak compartment over the v-berth.  The storage appears inadequate
for my needs.  The access port is rather small and I barely had room to stow
my rode.  That took me about 15 minutes of fiddling, time I shall not have
when retrieving the anchor singlehanding.

Some of you must have a better way - I hope you will share it.

Fair winds!
