E38-200
On my 38-200 I just pulled out all the anchor chain and rode. Reason being that I had no idea how much was in there and the rode had a mildew stink. In the three years of ownership I have anchored at least a dozen times and have never seen the rode come up the windless because theres 105 feet of chain before it. 300 feet of rode.
The rode was just haphazardly thrown in the bottom of the v-birth and was a nightmare getting out on the hard. It would have been impossible at sea.
My question is how much is too much? Will I ever need the full 400 feet?
