Rocna 33#
Dangiser
I am planning to purchase a Rocna 33 anchor for my Beneteau 343 (2007)
I would like to know if anyone has installed one and if there is any problem about
the configuration of this type of Anchor at the bow roller. When you retrieve the anchor does it spin, does line itself in
the bow roller. Or are there any issues in retrieving this anchor with the windless?

I put one on my ’04 423 and it just barely fit between the roller and the chain stopper. I had only one link of chain left for the stopper to work. Be advised that the 33 is huge relative to my 42’ boat. Do your measurements!! My windlass doesn’t seem to have any issue retrieving it, but I do keep RPMs up when it is in use. For twisting, I have added a heavy duty swivel a few links back.
On the usage note so far, it’s been a pretty fantastic anchor for the few times that I have had to use it here in the mooring ball laden Pacific Northwest. No horror stories yet of holding in Eel grass through 40 knots of wind, but I sure feel better knowing its down there when we venture away from the state parks.
