I'd like to design a sort if 'Steve Dashew' system with a run of chain in a slot in deck back to the mast where it falls into a tall slinny box so it can't knot up from bad weather. After a particulary bad passage our chain rearanges itself and when we anchor it won't pay uut and needs to be pulled out. All that chain is also a lot of weight forward of the waterline. Haviny a tall skinny box at the mast has much in it's favor
