Right, I understand shackle ratings better now.
In Response To: Shackles for ground tackle ()

Still when I see boats with heavy galvanized chain and anchors and the weak link SS shackle or cheap swivel I figure most boats never get to test their limits. I sure don't entend to test ours, thats why we are sitting out Mexican Hurricane season in S. Calif. Still we do have Crosby galvanized shackles. Tom Evans SV Tappan Zee San Diego
