Loose Your Anchor Chain and Rode? 1-12-09


I know that a number of Looper boats lost their anchor, chain and/or rode in some pretty hairy circumstances on the rivers. Imagine Rose and Gary’s surprise when they hired a diver to check out a little “noise” on their boat, Rose’s Pick, and he came up with this hunk of metal today. I know one creative Looper who thought she would add a super magnet to help retrieve anything that might go overboard. Gary must have activated his super duper magnet, aka propeller, that swept up this vintage anchor system from the deep around the Blackburn Bridge yesterday. Gary is entertaining all offers and points given for the most creative use.
