Received a 200' drum of 1/2" G43 chain, at my loading dock upstate, while I was hanging out at Hilton Head avoiding Dorian. Handling here is no sweat. Handling at my marina will be sweat-worthy.

Gotta get it marked plus make up a new bridle(s). Think I'm going to link it to the existing chain at least to bring it aboard. That's gonna be one helluva racket.

Good plan, unless you want a serious backache that even serious steroids won't fix...
You are going to have enough ground tackle for anything short of the Marianas Trench.
