fishing anchor for 225 freedom

[dwasser]

we just put our freedom 225 in the water several weeks ago. can anyone recommend an easily deployable anchor system for this boat. a windlass system would be nice, but a manual setup would work fine.

i would also like an electric trolling motor. we do alot of fishing in the tributaries between tilghman island and baltimore on the chesapeake bay. thanks

ps: the 225 freedom is not an available boat on the dropdown menu in the member profiles

i've checked with my dealer and they say there is no practical way to install an easily deployable anchor system on this boat. i assume that the 225 tournament is a similar design. does anyone have an anchor roller, bow pulpit, or anchor windlass on this style and size grady? thanks

i sent an email to grady white for their advice.

I realize this is a 9 year old question. I have a 2018 Freedom 215 (same bow). I am curious if you found a way to put a windlass on your 225.
