lonkm Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 what is the proper way to deploy a chene anchor? with the rope next to the flukes or out at the arm end. Thanks
brownieman Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Lack of knowledge here...sounds better than stupid, lol...not familiar with a chene anchor. What it is ?? My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><
patfish Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 If I'm not mistaken, a Cheney anchor is what the former VP of the US used to sink bodies of his hunting buddies....

LMAO...I don't think any of us really want to know what's been sank by Cheney...pretty apparant what he's kept afloat, lol My friends say I'm a douche bag ?? Avatar...mister brownie bm <><
fishinwrench Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 You want to tie to a sliding ring or 2FT. piece of heavy chain attached on the arm, and pay out plenty of rope to get an angle of less than 45 degrees. The tighter the angle the better the hold. Personally I've found them to suck really bad, but YMMV. Mushrooms or tri-flute anchors are WAY better.
brownieman Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Would somebody decribe one to my stupid butt...probably have seen one but curious which one you guys are talking about. Most important thing I've learned with any anchor...keep a sharp knife handy. If you anchor in spots where you really shouldn't a sharpe knife can get you out of a jam...rather lose an anchor than a life, boat, whatever. My friends say I'm a douche bag ??

'Evil Brownieman' LMFAO...you smart a$$, lol, you are gonna make that stick aint ya ?? That's the ones I was thinking of...One of them is where my knife comment came from...they hang good...sometimes in a strong current I've had to motor up past them to get em up, a real bitch. Those sob's have given me and a buddy a couple of close calls...no more, we finally set them free below bagnell, you know...the underwater salvage yard, lol. Thanks for lining my old butt out buddy.
