1996 Grady 24.8 Voyager

[Jawneebahamas]

Hello everyone… New to the forum… I have a 24.81996 Grady white voyager and I have a question regarding the winless and specifically what size is the chain. I had an unfortunate incident today where I was testing out a modification and the worker bee who is doing it did not connect the chain to the rode after some maintenance and when I let it out today to test it off with the anchor and all my chain to the deep depths of the waters in Bahamas. They are going to replace it for me but I need to know what size chain feeds the windless? 1/2”... 5/8”....If anyone has this information that would be much appreciated. He’s going to replace it with 20 feet of chain but I need to know what the dimensions of the chain I need him to order

You’ll want to look up the brand of windlass for the chain specs
