asking for the measurements Luff/Leech/foot for the 26M 165% Generator & sq ft they have not yet got back to me, I think they r in the process of moving to a new location according to their Web site We sail in the ocean when it’s 7-10, and if it’s more windy 10+ we sail in mission bay (has some wind protection from buildings) Wind here typically is very light in the mornings 0-3mph and increases to 7-14 in afternoon. So I,ll wait for ur response regarding ur usual sailing On a side note if I went with something like this I,d likely b adding 7/8" S/S fixed whisker stay struts about 1/3 back from the anchor roller to say just below the black stripe below the forward pulpit stanchions with say 3" alum flat bar bent into an L shaped configuration to go around the deck joint for backing plates so as to b attached to the pulpit front stanchions bases & then down to the hull whisker attachment thus relieving the stress totally from the deck joint so as the deck & hull structure r now sharing the load NOT the deck joint "think like bulkhead structures" & as u would already b in that area inside the cabin bow why not as u r already there ! another note also on the hull u will want to install plastic cutting board between the the hull & the L shaped backing plates This is a very nice looking simple unit but beware the anchor roller is only designed for anchor storage not for using as a anchoring point u would have to tie off the anchor line to the bow cleats & snubber to the bow eye that way if the weather picks up " no worries" Here,s a simple bowsprit/anchor roller that attaches to the boat at 3 points the top deck mounts clamp-on to the existing front pulpit forward stanchions & the hull mount attaches a 7/8" S/S fixed bobstay strut to the bow just above the rake line about 1/3% up from the Bow eye & this is a pic of it installed on an What,s ur average winds u go sailing in ?
