I have a small older 17' bowrider. Upfront I have three storage spots under the seats which I use for life jackets. (See pic). Like many older small boats I don't have a lot of storage
What would you suggest for storing an anchor up front with 75'+ line? I'm new to boating, at present the anchor is sitting in the back of the boat. I used it for the first time today and spent 20mins trying to untangle it.
I was thinking along the lines of running the line through the front attachment at the bow(not a cleat) and coiling it neatly perhaps in some kind of container at the front on the floor, then laying the anchor on top.
Then when I wanted to use it I could lower the anchor and reel out line as needed.
