What does a Lewmar anchor rode include?

Each rode includes a length of hot dip galvanized G4 chain, a matched length of windlass-grade nylon rope, and a shackle sized to connect the chain to your anchor.

How do I choose the right rode for my boat?

Match the chain diameter and shackle size to your windlass gypsy specification, then confirm the rope diameter and length suit your boat size and anchor locker capacity.

What is the difference between the two rope types offered?

The shorter rode uses three-strand twist nylon rope, while the longer rode uses 8-plait nylon rope, which offers less twist and easier handling at greater lengths.

Is the chain galvanized?

Yes, all chain in this rode line is G4 grade and hot dip galvanized to resist corrosion.

Are these rodes compatible with Lewmar windlasses?

Yes, the chain and shackle sizes are designed to work with Lewmar windlass models sized for the corresponding chain diameter.

What boat sizes are these rodes designed for?

The shorter, thinner combination suits smaller boats around 30 to 35 feet, while the longer, heavier combination suits larger boats needing more scope and holding power.

How is the chain constructed?

The chain is welded for strength and calibrated for an even pitch so it feeds smoothly through a windlass gypsy.

Does the rode come pre-spliced?

Yes, the rope and chain are joined and finished with a shackle so the rode is ready to install and deploy.
