Title: Delta Anchor Mount
Post by: jpaulroberts on February 09, 2006, 09:53:20 PM
I have a 22 lb Delta quick set anchor which I love, but I want to put a 35 lb one on just to sleep better in a big blow. I want to mount it on a bow roller so I do not have to lift it in and out of the well. Has anyone mounted one of these on a C-34? Eventually I will add a winch, but right now I just want to know what roller/mount will fit on my bow.

Thanks, Jerry

This: http://www.c34.org/projects/projects-ron-hill.html  has a picture of Ron's anchor roller.

Also the May 95 Tech Notes have the write up from Ron with a photo.

Other tech notes mentioning anchor rollers are:  Nov 97, Feb 99, Nov 87, Feb 89 and May 92.

I've got a 35# Delta Deepset on my boat in the stock roller unit. It seems to fit OK. I don't know exactly what model it is, so can't advise you beyond that. Good luck.

Jerry : A Delta 35 will fit in the anchor roller that I mounted.  Look at Stu's post to that site with my installation.

Jeff : FYI, the 1986 thru 1988 C34's did not come with a bow anchor roller.    :wink:
