This Seachoice 8-Plait Anchor Rode delivers outstanding performance and operates smoothly in any windlass. This durable and pliable ½-In.-diameter nylon rope is 200 feet long. It is hand-spliced in the USA to a ¼-In. x 10-foot-long G4 high-test galvanized chain that includes a 5/16-In. shackle. The 8-plait rope offers strength similar to that of traditional 3-strand rope, but its multi-strand, woven lay lets the rope lay more compactly in the anchor locker. Plus, the 8-plait rope absorbs higher shock loads better than traditional 3-strand rope. A bucket is also included. Seachoice is committed to delivering quality marine accessories and OEM replacement parts to satisfy fishing, boating and watersports enthusiasts worldwide. Seachoice is run for and by boaters, offering a wide-ranging product line while remaining affordable.
