Boat Anchor Rollers

Boat anchor rollers are a great way to protect your boat from damage when dropping or pulling up the anchor. The rollers provide a moving surface and guide that allows you to pull up your anchor from any angle on from your deck to avoid damage to the hull, sides, or deck. Anchor rollers also provide a place to store your anchor and allows for easy access and retrieval.

Wholesale Marine carries a wide variety of anchor rollers from top brands in anchoring parts and accessories.  Anchorlift , Lewmar , Sea Dog , Windline, and Whitecap are industry leaders for their design and innovation in boat anchor mounts.

Anchor Rollers and Mounts for Every Craft

When selecting anchor roller or boat anchor mounts, it is important to take a few things into consideration.  Make sure you know the size of the anchor you are using. Once you know the size of anchor you are using, does the anchor roller keep the anchor an adequate distance from the boat, and can the anchor shaft fit through the loop of the roller? We carry a selection of universal boat anchor mounts that are designed for easy mounting and are built with top-quality products made to withstand the harshest marine conditions.

Wholesale Marine makes it easy to find the marine part you need. Whether it is anchor rollers, anchor chains, or anchor lines, we can help.

The Offshore Voyaging Reference Site

• The Perfect Anchor Roller

We offshore sailors have the ability to put up for years, and sometimes even for decades, with gear that really does not work very well. And yet we also have gear on our boats that has been refined to be near perfect. This dichotomy never ceases to amaze me.

A good example of the latter is the two-speed self-tailing winch, a machine that has been essentially unchanged for some 30 years and that just works so perfectly that it’s hard to think of any way to improve it.

On the other hand, bow (anchor) rollers by and large fall into the former category. Most of them don’t work very well, and yet we put up with this sad state of affairs and seem to assume that the rollers provided by most boat builders are as good as it gets.

But they aren’t, and improving or replacing them is one of the most useful modifications we can make to a voyaging boat. Let’s look at what makes the perfect anchor roller, or at least way better than standard, and how to build one.

Hi John, Nice article about a piece of gear which, when it gives you trouble, can really ruin your day and lead to serious injuries when attempting to put things right. I feel lucky to have an anchor platform which checks most of your boxes and has been a valuable companion (with our windlass) to many a fire drill over the years. The anchor is secured aft by the windlass and secured with the windlass brake. Next however, I have always lashed our anchor to the side and back as this keeps it from making noise in side to side action and “fixes” it in place. In the rare need for immediate anchor down, a kick to the rotary handles on the windlass clutch and a knife (either in my pocket or lashed to the pulpit) to the side tensioning line could not be faster. I have shied away from chain clutches as I have known reports of clutches that, when tensioned toward the anchor, have been hard to release without the tension being taken up by the windlass (much like some rope clutches are hard to release without the tension being relieved by the winch). That is a very interesting observation by Colin about the groove in the roller mitigating chain twist. I have such a groove in my roller and have never suffered from chain twist and feel the same way about chain swivels as you so delicately put it. This may go part way towards explaining why some feel the need for a swivel (beyond the extra-ordinary advertising hype).

My best, Dick Stevenson, s/v Alchemy

I guess we will have to agree to disagree on the lashings. I really don’t like to see an anchor lashed in such a way that a knife will be required.

To me, as I say in the post, if the anchor can’t be secured by tensioning the rode then the roller needs modifying or replacing.

I agree on the dangers of a clutch jamming. That’s why we only use the band brake inshore.

We have an anchor well about half a metre deep. I’m still working out how best to utilize it, but I think one option is to bring the anchor inboard off soundings and to secure it in this well. It’s better protected, weight is (somewhat) out of the ends and the stresses on the short sprit are lessened. I approve of the “groove in the Delrin” roller idea; mine already features that, but alas, I have them ganged in three side by side, which as you point out, is self-limiting.

Still, this is very thought-provoking, especially as I’m on course to buy an expensive anchor!

I strongly recommend against bringing the anchor inboard when on a passage. First off, if your anchor roller is not strong enough to take a wave strike offshore, then it’s simply not strong enough. Sooner or later it will get hit by a big wave inshore and then fail. Some of the worst wave strikes I have ever seen where when inshore sailing (wind against tide).

Second, when is the most likely time you will need to drop the anchor fast? Answer: at the end of an ocean passage when you are tired, the boat and the gear has been subjected to the stresses of an offshore passage, and you are approaching an unfamiliar harbour.

Bottom line, the best bower should be ready to go at a moments notice at all times.

Thank you, John.

I have seen anchors’ chain being tightened using ‘devils claws’ secured on strong point additionally to the windlass brake method you describe. By the way what are your thoughts on Boreal 47 anchor pulpit and roller design?

Hi Nikolas,

Yes, I have seen ‘devils claws’ too, but I really don’t like them much since it is difficult to release them under load, and therefore if I didn’t have a band brake I trusted, I would prefer the system with the Tylaska shackle I list above.

As to the Boreal, I have not used the rollers, but they look as if they would work well with a single anchor. However, I also think the second anchor positioning could be improved a lot. More on that in part 2

Hi Nikolas a couple of points on the anchor mounting on the Boreal (form someone who has worked on them). The first is that the rollers themselves are a decent size – far too often they are too small in diameter. The second is that the chain passes through a tube under the deck and can be secured by a pin or carabiner back at the locker in front of the mast so it cannot come free, which is a lot easier than doing it out on the bowsprit platform. The third is that most of the boats I have worked on with the owners have a welded samson post just aft of the anchor channels which is a perfect place to attach a securing line for the anchor at the inboard end. But Like most of these boats (our Ovni, too) the platform doesn’t lend itself well to the permanent mounting of a second anchor; however it is perfect for attaching a snubber from the samson post to pass out through the starboard roller. Best wishes Colin

Thanks for the fill in on the Boreal.

Hi John, If the goal is a secure the anchor in a manner that provides reliable stowage and also allows for quick emergency deployment, then I believe that the lashing I referred to (actually a one line pulling around the anchor so it torques it and pulls it aft) seems to meet the criteria, at least for me. One quick swipe with a knife that is always on station on the pulpit releases this secondary securing line. I am uncomfortable, if I read your securing system correctly, with there only being the band brake holding the anchor in place when sailing inshore. As you pointed out, some of the most potent blows to the anchor and the anchor area happen coastal cruising wind vs tide. I prefer 2 modes of securing the anchor, inshore or off. The anchor going walk-about through some sort of failure, human (failure to tighten the band brake sufficiently) or mechanical, in a seaway is too much a recipe for damage to vessel or person to be left to one method. By the way, I likely missed a notice or something, but I miss the ability to check a box and have further comments sent directly to my email. Is there a way I can request this to occur? My best, Dick Stevenson, s/v Alchemy

Like I say, we will have to agree to disagree. I’m perfectly comfortable securing with a substantiation band brake like that on our Idea windlass and if I had a less substantial brake I would use a tackle, as detailed in the post.

Further, I disagree with the idea of having different securing methods inshore and offshore. As I said to Marc, some of the worst conditions to loosen up an anchor I have seen occurred inshore.

Yes, I tend to tighten the clutch too, offshore, but that’s just being anal, and is not very logical, as our discussion has made clear to me.

To me, there should be one simple and easy to release way to secure the anchor at all times.

And to me the fundamental point is that if tensioning the rode, no matter whether band brake or tackle, won’t secure the anchor properly, then the design of the roller is flawed.

I agree completely on the importance of the bow roller and think that you have done a good job of outlining what to keep in mind. Here are a few thoughts to add to it:

I agree with your belief that tensioning the chain should make the anchor secure. I have built a few bow rollers at this point and the second to last one I built had ears on it similar to the one that you have pictured with the spade. When I was building it, I made sure to get the geometry right which was not easy as most of these are actually too far aft and when the anchor comes up, it contacts this area first often making it hard to get on the roller. It worked okay for a while although it was a bit finicky when pulling in the chain the last few inches. I ended up bending one of the ears temporarily preventing proper stowage while hauling the anchor in the dark leaving an anchorage because the wind had gotten up to 30 and it was starting to get rough. In the end, I made something with a roller geometry an awful lot like the FPB one with 2 separate rollers for a single anchor. When the anchor is hauled all the way in, the lower roller is effectively against the fluke and the upper roller is still touching the shank so the anchor is really secure. Also, 2 rollers really decrease the loads as the shank comes up and over. On an anchor like a spade with the really curved shank, this may be harder to implement. I now believe that the anchor roller ideally should actually have 2 rollers placed to securely hold the shank and fluke.

For short hops, we simply leave the load on the chain. For longer periods, I installed a cleat next to the windlass and we use a soft shackle to attach a line to the chain which is cleated off. If we need the anchor down quickly, I simply uncleat the line and drop the anchor with the line still attached to the chain which I have tried and works fine.

One of the hardest things in my experience is dealing with mooring pendants. On our boat, there is a large stainless bow casting which would need extensive modification to put a chock beyond the anchor which is already sort of out in space to prevent interference. We have compromised and use homemade cyclone mooring pendants (dyneema with a brummel splice on either end on the boat end of a normal nylon pendant) and leave the anchor on unless we are threatened with storm conditions. We have seen a small amount of chafe on the fire hose chafe guard but absolutely zero visible chafe to the dyneema. With our previous Yale pendants and plain nylon ones, we quickly got chafe from the anchor and had to remove it. Nantucket has successfully used the same system for a quite a while now and it can get pretty rough in there in a NE and nobody bothers to take anchors off and no chafe has been observed. While not ideal, I believe this to be a safe compromise provided that we are around and able to take the anchor off the bow when prolonged storm force conditions are expected which is less than once a year for us.

A lot of good points, thanks. I will be covering much of this in part 2, particularly the mooring issue.

Boat Anchor Rollers & Holders

There are many types of anchors out there, and they have different designs selected in accordance with the vessel's size, displacement, bottom condition, and some other parameters. Meanwhile, any of them is quite a bulky piece of metal requiring special storage conditions. Their storage place has to be convenient and safe not only for your crew but also for the boat itself, as you surely don't want the hull to be damaged by a heavy anchor. Our online store offers a large assortment of boat anchor rollers & holders enabling you to choose an optimal solution that meets your requirements and suits your vessel.

Actually, an anchor roller is a universal and practical device compatible with different anchor types. It's relatively easy to install, however, there are some limitations related to the style and size of an anchor. Our rollers are available in various designs, and selecting the right one is important for optimal performance and safety. The most crucial questions to keep in mind while choosing a new roller is whether it can provide a safe distance between the anchor and hull, and if the shank fits through the roller's loop. Besides, make sure your boat has enough mounting room for the roller you like.

Anchor Rollers & Mounts How-Tos

Installing anchor rollers.

Anchor rollers play a crucial role in marine anchoring systems; their main purpose is to keep the anchor chain and rode in place for a steady guide. It stretches over the bow of the boat and safely separates the chain and the rode. Assembling and installing an anchor roller is an extensive but straightforward process, and with professional/additional assistance, you should have no problem putting this together.

Required Items

• Anchor roller
• Teak Panel (1/2-inch thick)
• Bedding caulk
• 3 Stainless Steel Bolts
• 3 Stainless Spacers
• 3 Stainless Nuts
• Drill Bits (3/8 and 1/2-inch)
• Marine Plywood
• Epoxy Resin
• End Wrenches
• 1+ Assistant(s)

Instructions

1. Set the boat at a level position in an environment that is convenient and easy to move around without things getting in the way. Place the roller on the deck of the bow, and then set the mounting surface in place as far back as possible.

2. Center the mounting bracket so it is perfectly in between the port and starboard sides of the bow. The felt pen will come in handy here—use it to outline the bracket's position on the deck and mark locations for the drill holes. Also, draw the outline of the mounting bracket on the teak panel AND the plywood.

3. Cut the teak and plywood panels in the shape of the outlines you drew. Place the teak panel underneath the mounting bracket and stick a drill bit into the mounting holes. Then repeat the process with the plywood. Use a drill and bits to drill the holes through the teak and plywood panels.

4. Drill three mounting holes into the bow deck with the half-inch drill bit. Tape the bottom of the holes, so they are closed off.

5. Pour epoxy resin into the top side of the holes. Let the epoxy rest for a while so that when you remove the tape from the holes, the resin will not leak.

6. Lay down one thick coat of bedding caulk on both sides of the teak panel, and then line it up with the drill holes.

7. Set the anchor roller over the teak and install three stainless steel bolts through the drilled holes.

8. Apply bedding caulk to one side only of the plywood panel (a second pair of hands in this process is extremely helpful).

9. With the help of an assistant, set the sticky side of the plywood down over the mounting bolts.

10. Hold down the mounting bolts and shove the plywood panel against the underside of the bow deck.

11. Place one spacer and one nut on each bolt and then tighten everything securely.

12. Use the end wrench to hold the bolt heads from the topside, while your assistant tightens all of the nuts with their wrench. Be sure to keep the mounting bracket centered throughout this process.

13. Once the roller is tight and secure, clear all excess bedding caulk from the deck and bottom.

14. Let epoxy resin and bedding caulk dry for at least 24 hours.

*We do recommend consulting with a mechanic or technician before and during this process.

Mantus Anchor Bow Rollers

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The Mantus anchor bow roller is designed to fit an anchor of any design and when combined with the anchor-guard, it provides an ultimate solution for anchor storage.

• Rugged 316 stainless steel construction
• Beautiful Mirror Polish
• Slotted Delrin rollers designed to align the chain before it enters the windlass to avoid chain skipping.
• Slotted roller housing allows the Mantus anchor roller to create an endless custom configuration to guarantee a perfect anchor fit.
• Easily integrates the  Anchor-Guard

BR1 Design: Does NOT feature the top brake assembly

BR2/BR3 Design: Incorporates the top brake assembly

Top brake assembly serves two functions:

• In the pushed down position it stabilizes the stored anchor. Spread the two spring loaded rollers and slide over the anchor shank, lock the brake in place with the knobs on the side.
• In the upright position the top brake assembly controls the angle at which  the anchor is deployed, making sure it travels away from the boat and does not hit structures on deck on its way.

The Mantus anchor bow roller is the smoothest, most versatile bow anchor mount available.

After seeing your products at the FLIB a couple of years ago, I bought one of your bow rollers for my previous boat. It was an excellent product.

I installed the new Barracuda 900 last Sunday. Quick n easy.  Thanks for all the help and patience you extended me.

I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to work with me on this problem with the anchor of my Cobalt A28.

Once again, thanks so much for your professionalism in serving a customer.

Thank you very much, and I also want to thank you for the exceptionally good service!

Thanks for your attention to this and your willingness to provide superior customer service. Great doing business with you guys!

Thank you for sending the gypsy. The system works great now. Btw the casting and machining looks better than the one that was on mine!
