Anchor Line Thickness

[chpthril]

does everyone here also use two anchors? I know I do.

I keep 2 on board, one for regular use and the 2nd for rough/windy conditions or when anchoring traffic is heavy like the 4th of july.

so if they are under the swim platform, did tige make it so you could tow a tube from the ski pylon or what?
because on my 22v I tow from the rings cuz im scared it will rip out the pylon

My guess is they must have because that is where I am towing my tube from. There is nothing that tells me that I can't so that is what I am going to do.

Seems like a cool idea. Is he down for a group buy?

I can talk to him and I am sure it can happen if we can get about 10 guys to do it.

Thanks Domsz but most of these I do not think will work.

coach,

Get a line that floats. If you run over it you won't lose your anchor. I speak from experience

Lucky, I totally agree with you on this. My GF decided run over someone's anchor line one time. Thank goodness that their anchor line was floating.......

CP3, don't get me started. It is my pet peeve. Where the lifting rings are would not be an issue if we had a REAL pylon, not the pretty pansy pylon, or PPP.

I think that the contours of the RZ2 make it hard to put lifting rings higher on the transom. Definitely a beauty over function issue as far as I am concerned. Tige is out of character on that one and has slumped to the level of other boat manufacturers. I am happy to have an ugly boat with features that are functional. It sounds like something other boat manufacturers would do. Towing off of the tow rings is just a PITA.

Dont hold back Tall, tell us what you really think about the pylon

I THINK IT'S HOW WE ALL FEEL ABOUT THE PYLON

I believe in using an 1/2" anchor line that sinks, that way when you unhook the line, wait a monment on the line sinks to the bottom and stays out of way of your prop. I also use a single line from my anchor to my beach stake and attach clips to the anchor line at the bow and stern. Works great.

[Domsz06]

i'm with zany! but a floating line is kind of nice at times!

[da.bell]

I think this is one of those "damned if you do, damned if you don't" kind of things.....

[Domsz06]

yeah da.bell I would agree!
