The wheel on an anchor windlass that is designed to pull on the chain is indeed

I may have the exact name incorrect but the lower part of the vertical shaft
windless can grip rope rode (size does matter) then as the transition to

>> What about the chain/rope connection?
I use a rope to chain splice and the Lewmar rope/chain capable gypsy. The
splice is well
