Isn't the anchor locker on the CD 27 in the fore peak just in front of the v berth bulkhead?

I recall it as leading down to a "point" at the bottom along the edge of the bulkhead. Can you try to lead it forward and let it drop more forward with a half pipe or something?

By the way, isn't that 5/16" HT chain a bit of overkill?
