pita
well...the pita part is even though I have a locker for my line..when I activate the down button to extend the anchor...sometimes the anchor sits there on the roller...so...I have to go out on the bow and push it off....once it's extended ..this it pays out as normal....sometimes the breaker pops..there is such a huge electrical load that when I hit the botton to extend...the breaker pops...so mine is in the sink locker..(why they put it there I'll never know) ..so reset the breaker...run back onto the bow...hit the down button and push the anchor out.....continue to pay out the rode till it hits bottom...have the wife put the boat in reverse to set the anchor and then..finally..relax.....it doesn't happen everytime..but when it does happen...it's always when I don't need that kind of gymnastic's.........
if the anchor had more of a downward angle..it probably wouldn't be a problem........hope this helps.....the lewmar's are really good units....I wouldn't hesitate telling people to get one of those....but the way mine was installed makes it difficult to trouble shoot sometimes.... :wink:
