[quote=MN3][quote]Some of us don't have the luxury of sailing with other cats, So I urge all of you to check your anchor pins, bring a phone, and tell someone where you'll be and when you'll expect to be back.[/quote]
those pins are know to fail, i demasted in the gulf of Mexico due to one on my h18. thanks goodness my pals saw me (way back) and came back. they towed me to a beach and we rigged a g-cat anchorpin that got me home.
i now still carrry my extra h18 pin
PS those typically fail in the middle, where you can't see the threads... it is recommended you change them out ever 2 years or so...[/quote]
