Thanks Frederick! I thought that it would be okay but have learned never to
assume especially on the water! Do you use anything to keep the line from
jumping the roller or has that not been a problem? Thank you, Sam

Sam — I typically anchor with the line over the roller.  Same sort of setup
as you have, but a larger Fortress; and we anchor in sand up in the Apostle
Islands.

I have a Landfall 38 with a double bow roller. I am in the northern
Chesapeake Bay. I only use 10' of chain and the rest is 8 plait anchor
line. The bottom around here is mostly mud and I get incredible holding
power from my Fortress 23. My question is is it okay to just run the line
over the bow roller then cleat it off or should I run the line through one
of the port/starboard bow openings you run your dock lines through? Thanks
in advance to all responders.
