RODE MAINTENANCE (cont)

After re-splicing the anchor rode something didn't look right. It was the chain (see previous post). One lesson I've learned the hard way is, "If you're going to do something, do it right the first time." So off to the chandlery I went and replaced the 40' of rusted chain with 50' of G4 HDG. It's all good now.

It's only as strong as the weakest link.
Highly suggest a pull test.
