Split Rode Locker

The 400 has a rode locker large enough for two rodes and an extra anchor if you split the locker 60/40. I used a piece of 1/2" starboard to split the locker. The larger section is under the windlass with plenty of room for the 120 feet of chain and 200 feet of 5/8" nylon rode. I added a pad eye in the upper forward section to tie the 50 amp shorepower cord out of the way. This keeps the locker neat and keeps the rode for tangling with the cord.

The smaller section has room for my second anchor, an FX 23 Fortress, and 300 feet of 5/8 nylon.
