Greetings all!
I picked up my new-to-me 2577 RFI last week. The trailer winch attaches to a metal eye underneath the bow about 18" or so back from the front of the boat. (There is no extended front deck outside the railings....). This appears to be the only place for me to attach an anchor rode when attempting to anchor from the bow. The problem is that it is difficult to reach it from the deck of the boat. One would have to open the front gate and reach back underneath to attach and tie off an anchor line. What is the best way to make this an easy task?
Thanks for taking the time to enlighten me. Just looking for a way easily drop anchor / tie off / retrieve anchor. There are two docking cleats at the rear corners, but I would prefer to anchor from the bow.
