Selecting the right anchor line involves understanding your boat's requirements and the conditions in which you typically anchor. Here's how to choose the right diameter based on your boat's size, according to the products offered by American Rope:
Maintaining Your Anchor Lines
Rinse with Fresh Water:
After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse your anchor lines to remove salt and debris.
Inspect Regularly:
Look for fraying, cuts, or signs of wear. Replace lines as needed to ensure safety.
Store Properly:
Keep your lines dry and away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent degradation.
