Springs arrival means a fever pitch race to get the bowsprit done. Here is the intended hardware layout. Note the glossy Bristol Finish.

Ron, looks good!
Having wrestled with our bowsprit some, I have a great appreciation for how much work it has taken to get to this point. We just bought new Spartan bow rollers to replace the original ones. The new ones are much heftier. Now to install them!

Looks great, and is similar to what I did after Hurricane Frances damaged the sprit. I stuck with teak although I beefed it up but the configuration I chose was very similar to yours. I now have room for both anchors very comfortably. I'd post pictures, but I don't ahve any and I don't know how.
