Description
The Tayana 37 as factory standard cannot accept a Rocna anchor, as its rollers are small and placed directly on the bowsprit/platform assembly. This clashes with the roll-bar on the Rocna. Furthermore, there are serious issues with the whisker stays which generally make the factory design inadequate (for any anchor). The stays are located directly next to and below the roller, placed to foul any anchor deployed from the intended stowage position.;The photos shown on this page are of customized roller assemblies intended to solve these problems.;All photos herein courtesy Alan Dean, http://www.raincoastimages.ca;Other solutions (concepts);The below document is an old collection of concept drawings for a number of possible solutions for the Tayana 37 bowsprit and anchor problems.
