The 9\/16\" 3-strand nylon rope and 5\/16\" ACCO hi-test hot-dipped galvanized chain are engineered to feed cleanly through Lewmar V-Series and Pro-Series windlass gypsies, while the tapered splice ensures a smooth, snag-free rope-to-chain transition under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWindlass-optimized design\u003c\/strong\u003e — engineered specifically for Lewmar V-Series and Pro-Series windlass compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eACCO hi-test, hot-dipped galvanized chain, 5\/16\" x 20'\u003c\/strong\u003e — heavier chain section for improved catenary and holding power on larger vessels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-strand nylon twist rope, 9\/16\" x 200'\u003c\/strong\u003e — chemically treated to stay flexible after prolonged saltwater and UV exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered rope-to-chain splice\u003c\/strong\u003e — smooth, snag-free transition through the windlass gypsy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-duty sizing\u003c\/strong\u003e — 9\/16\" rope diameter and 5\/16\" chain rated for vessels in the 35–55 ft range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest Use Case\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for larger powerboats and sailboats in the 35–55 ft range equipped with a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/11043580018724\"\u003eLewmar V700\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/11043574874148\"\u003eLewmar V4\u003c\/a\u003e, or other Lewmar V-Series or Pro-Series windlass rated for 5\/16\" chain. The 200' scope supports anchoring in depths up to 33 feet at a 6:1 scope ratio, and the 20' chain section provides meaningful catenary weight to keep the anchor lying flat and set in wind and current. This configuration is well-suited for extended coastal cruising, overnight anchoring in exposed anchorages, and conditions where a lighter rode would be undersized for the vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eParts Desk Insights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm your Lewmar windlass gypsy is rated for 5\/16\" chain before ordering — some V-Series models ship with a 1\/4\" gypsy.

For heavy-weather anchoring or areas with strong tidal current, a 30–50' chain section is still preferred by experienced cruisers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-strand nylon stretches under load, absorbing shock from wave action and wind gusts — a key advantage over braided rope for anchoring. This protects both the windlass and the anchor cleat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect the rope-to-chain splice annually for chafe and corrosion. The splice junction is the highest-wear point on any pre-spliced rode and should be replaced if fraying or rust staining is visible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LNS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51210828152868,"sku":"239-69000339","price":1020.62,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/239-69000332_dbe8a447-b805-4401-a6ea-23c6e1d5b8e1.jpg?v=1786149384","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/lewmar-anchor-rode-9-16-200ft-nylon-5-16-20ft-chain","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
