Wow, I thought finding a replacement anchor pin would be easy but not so! The guys in the yard and West Marine had nothing that would fit and I got a $60 quote to have one made. I thought a bolt and wing-nut would suffice but couldn't find one long and narrow enough. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Do you have a bronze roller? Spartan sells the pins for like $8. It might be a little more now.Bill Kerkam wrote: Wow, I thought finding a replacement anchor pin would be easy but not so!

Re: 1978 CD 28 Anchor Pin
Last year we purchased what is known as a detent style pin that holds the anchor in the roller from Defenders - www.DefenderUS.com at 1-888-611-0900 for 10.79 plus shipping. Make sure you size correctly. Good luck! It is pictured in the Defenders catalog.
