Chain marking sequences
The below table gives recommended sequences for marking your chain with the final column showing number of colours you would need for that sequence.
The "A" for the Anchor (Red) should be placed about 1-2 meters from 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.
The "STOP" in placed near 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!)

+ add a guide plate for ease of reference...
...once you have picked your martkers, add a guide plate to be placed by the windlass, at the helm or in the anchor locker as a reference when letting out the anchor chain.
As the guide will be manufactured to suit your exact requirements once you have ordered we will email you to confirm the dimensions / numbers you need and then send a visual to confirm we have understood your requirements.
