- Thimble spliced in
- Yes
This Seachoice anchor line is white three-strand twisted nylon, 1/2 inch by 150 feet, and it comes with a galvanized steel thimble for attaching an anchor. The maker calls the three-strand construction extremely strong and says the line is built to take sudden jolts of load, which matters for a boat riding at anchor.
Our take
At 1/2 inch by 150 feet, this nylon line comes with a galvanized steel thimble for the anchor, and the maker calls the three-strand construction extremely strong. It is built to take sudden shock loads.
From our buying guide
The Coast Guard's general guidance is to let out five to seven times the depth of water plus the distance from the surface to the bow. Samson says nylon is used in anchor lines because its elasticity absorbs shock loads.
Check before you buy:
- The length gives you that scope in the water where you anchor.
- The chain included is what you want, since products include different lengths of chain: 4 ft in some and 15 ft in others.
- You can get at any rope-to-chain splice, which New England Ropes says to check regularly and remake at any evidence of wear.
