Windline Pivoting Anchor Roller protects any boat while raising or lowering anchor by keeping the rode away from the hull. Works via a cantilever system that makes it easier to raise or lower the anchor with a windlass. It also secures the anchor while underway.
Roller provides rode a strong, dependable and protective point of contact while at anchor and features a special Marithane wheel that is more durable and quieter than either hard plastic or metal.

An anchor roller is a worthwhile addition whether you have a windlass or if you are pulling up the anchor by hand. Installation can be tricky- you will need to drill the mounting holes through the stainless bracket as well as the boat deck. Measure carefully before drilling!
