Richter Anchor with a Minn Kota Deckmate

Anyone using this combination? Does it stow properly? What length and size chain did you use on the rode?
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

River anchor for me as well, 20#er. I have 10' of chain, and 100' of rope as rode. This will sucessfully anchor me in 30' of water on the lakes we visit, (mostly mud bottom) with a good amount of wind.
