When I read the article in Marine how to, I closely inspected the last one we had and found a lot of micro fractures in the stainless. Since it is a worthless lit of gear anyway, I won't be using one again.Amazed that we and most full time cruisers can manage to anchor 365 days of the year without a swivel and wouldn't use one if they gave them away, yet those that don't actually seem to do much anchoring seem to think they are needed.
Why is this???
By the way, it has never been standard equipment on any commercial vessel I've ever operated. I have only seen swivels on yachts. Another, why is that?
