????? I can't imagine what you would be using to *anchor* a boat in salt water that would not tolerate being wet. My old boat has no separate compartment - the anchor locker drains into the bilge. To keep the smells down I hose the mud off the line and let it dry before putting it back down the hawsepipe if the weather allows, but that is for smells, not corrosion issues.

It provides a very porous surface that allows water to run away underneath it. They square pieces snap together and could be trimmed to fit the locker floor.

The line was wet, and the thimble corroded through. The shackle looks like crap too. Bought new thimble and shackles. I'm waiting for the line to dry before I splice it. I'm thinking of buying a milk crate and cutting it up and laying it in the bottom of the locker to keep it off the bottom of the locker. There is a drain, but there is obviously moisture in the locker. Thoughts?
