Dodged a bullet

Regular readers probably recall we have an 80 kg Ultra anchor on Mahalo, shown here. It's a beautiful brute, with a price tag to match. 

And you know Mahalo was just in the Seattle boat show. The "big boats" are tied to the dock "stern to." And they have an anchor deployed to keep the bow in place. While the Hampton guys were performing this operation, somehow they notice that the bolt securing the pin which attaches the swivel to the anchor was missing.  

This is a temporary bolt. The one supplied by Ultra is a flush fitting allen bolt. 

Without them noticing, one of these days I'd deploy my anchor and retrieve just the chain. Which is like a nightmare scenario. 

That was worth the trouble of having Mahalo in the boat show for sure. And BTW, when was the last time you checked bolts/etc on your ground tackle?
