WOW that is the dogs danglies, you must have a stainless steel engineer in the family.The swinging retaining bar is a great idea.Yours obviously is not sacrificial.thats HEAVY DUTY built to last.

It was made to my design, by Dave at Midas Manufacturing.

 

I have been thinking about adding one for a while now.

 

As you say built to take the strain and to last.

 

It sure helps to retrieve the heavy chain and anchor that we use.

I used to have a nice bow roller fitted to mine, until one day, with a novice as crew, he got the rope underneath the fitting,between the hull and the overhang and as the warp tightened.....

 

yes you've guessed it.... Ping.. the fitting came off with a great bang, flew up in the air and landed on the deck!

 

Anyway, I was thinking of removing it, and this just changed the job to a bit of fibreglass repair work...

It was using yours when I borrowed Imagine, that started me thinking of getting one Paul.

 

Mine has been made to be a good fit over the side deck, and is held on with the two large machine screws.

It is not left fitted all the time as there are times when it would just be in the way.
