WOW NICK! GREAT post. This clears it all up for me. I do not presently have a way to put the anchor into one of the hulls, but perhaps that is something that could be done before I take the boat sailing. And putting the anchor rope onto the front crosspiece makes perfect sense. I can't wait for Spring to take the boat out. OOPS. I guess I will have to, since I am going to have to get some light air to begin with. This is a terrific forum and I am very confident that I will be able to get my boat out and sailing when the weather warms up a bit.

THANKS!

Richard
