Kind of a short video this week. We've knew we needed to use an anchor bridle mostly because of our bobstay (the stay from the end of the bowsprit to the bow at the water line). When we haven't used one, the anchor chain would twang on the bobstay when we would swing. Rich made a makeshift anchor bridle from our old dock lines and it worked pretty well. But this new Mantus Marine anchor bridle is much better!

-----------------------------------
I’m Jeni and he’s Rich. We’re really just a couple of average Joes. In a nutshell we met and married in our early 20s; I graduated from college in my late 20s; adopted two cats and a dog in the late 90s; sold a house and bought a new house in our mid 30s; then sold the new house and moved onto a sailboat in our early 40s. In between all that we had a bunch of fun like camping, scuba diving, watching hockey games (Go Red Wings!), concerts, traveling, spear fishing, restoring a 1963 Chevy II Nova; spending time with family and friends. A few years ago we decided to lay off all the fun-having to fix up this old boat. We figure if we put our noses to the grindstone for a few years, we’ll be able to travel for a few years and do all the fun things we’ve missed.

I have a similar yacht, a Hans Christian 43, and made up a 3 strand nylon bridle to avoid the anchor chain damaging the bobstay. You will love the Mantus rig I'm sure, especially when the wind gets up!

My Mantus kegs are 26feet so soon you get used to simply adding that to your scope calculation. After I set the anchor with the engine I pay out the remaining chain necessary to allow the bridle to take over and then additional chain to give a nice bit of drooping chain between the luridly legs. Enjoy!

It was her first trip! We motored most of the time until the engine overheated (again) so she really hated the noise and hid inside. Once we anchored she came out and seemed pretty unfazed about it.

Thanks for the vid. Our boat came with one, but the Mantus set up is better for a reasonable price.

It's actually not that hard to deploy once you get it set up with the hard points on your boat, and practice doing it a couple times. We're actually pretty pleased with the results.

The Mantor kit looks really strong. I liked it, except for the security strap. We will see how long the velcro will hold. Cheers.

As soon as I get the engine overheat resolved, we'll certainly put it through its paces..

Jesus Rich how big is the boat. Those shackles and eye look bigger than the one I had on the 100' yacht I was on last week..it's ok really. I couldn't look past the amazing cushions.

It's pretty big, but there's a couple vids on actual hurricane results that I watched, and the prognosis is positive.
