thanks

I made one for just a few bucks and a few minutes of time. All it takes is a little tuna cord, or survey cord and a brass ring or even a big split ring to clip the chute to. If you are lucky you even have the tie downs already on the yak to loop the cord through, otherwise they are cheap at OEX. I didnt bother with fancy pulleys - they are nice, but you dont need them, the cord isn't that tight.

see that is what I was kind of looking into doing
but didn't even know where to start
I'm a very long drive from OEX i live in Running Springs right above San Bernardino
I'm on a brand new PA so it doesn't of the eyelet I need

Seriously man save yourself some money and make one. I installed one on the X-factor I just sold and never got a chance to try it, but I will install another one on the Prowler I just bought. Seriously for less than $10 you can make one that will do just as well as buying one.

I was planning I have the PA so I was going to do the same as TY on YakinTexas looked good and very sturdy
I need to buy a new anchor due to getting mine hung on the bottom of lake silverwood
it was a bad day that day
Dropped my phone in the water(never to be seen again)
anchor hung up(never to be seen again)
YakMedic got his rod and reel yanked over the side of his yak never to be seen
and only one TINY TINY TINY trout to be caught
Next time the score shall be settled

Sorry about the phone and the bad day. Check out this video about Kayaks and anchors, I never knew that anchors had 2 loop holes.
