[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 392744, member: 7076"] Basically, you're creating an anchor trolley, commonly used on Kayaks. pretty easy to do with three carabiners and a couple of strong pulleys. clip one carabiner/pulley to your bow eye and one more carabiner/pulley to a secure point where you can reach it. Take a rope and pull it through both pulleys and tie both ends to the third carabiner. Now you can simply clip your anchor line into the third carbinerr and use the rope to pull the carabiner and anchor rope to the bow. When you're done, pull it back and unclip the anchor line. Nice thing with the carabiners is that you can un-clip the entire assembly when you're not using it, so it doesn't get in the way. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
