Josh - Well, my LF38 is actually only 37.6. Here's how I did it. Note that the windlass and mounting is over engineered. That's come in handy as I single hand, and pull up to anchor with the windlass and against the wind (against all recommendations) and have only stalled it once. That

I mounted a shelf in the anchor locker because I thought the back of the locker was too flimsy on my boat to take the strain and there was a gap between it and the plywood bulkhead. I glassed some knees to the hull right where the balsa tapers and bolted the shelf to the knees. The shape of the

Hi Tim I bolted a Garhauer roller on the front, over the casting. Two bolts go into the casting where I drilled and tapped holes, and two further aft go thru the deck to a big backing plate. It is supported on a Starboard wedge. Looks OK, and a lot cheaper than getting a custom fit.
