Thanks for the detailed and informative post Erik.  That should really help folks getting a drift anchor together.

Send me a picture with the rudder down and one with it up in the cradle and I'll look at it.

Really fantastic of you to share this with us!    Very nice and clean, so simple yet effective!!!  Need a setup like this for my X-Factor
