Chain marking intervals for 35m

Chain marking intervals for 35m chain

We would recommend you mark

  1. with red just above the anchor so when it is about to reach the boat you can position it correctly, clean it if necessary and slow down retrieval so as not to slam it up onto the boat. 
  2. every five meters with a different colour as below
  3. with a stop sign as close to the end of the chain so the markers come out of the windlass just before the chain locks tight (assuming you have it attached to the boat!)
1 2 3
A 5 10 15 20 25 30

 You will need an 8-position chain marking set as below
