Thanks Charts,I called them last week, $725 pre tax and they are using galvanized rings and components. Trotac's set up is using Stainless rings , more chain and a few more upgrades but its about $100 more so your paying for what you get I guess.
Both are an option if I can't get used used set up .

Big 6” seine SS rings - PNT - $40 each
5/16” chain - Wolfe marine - 1/ft I think
SS hardware, release clip, 3/8 bow-stern line, floating 3/8” line, - Wolfe marine - $120
Anchor - I had one
600’ 3 strand nylon spool $120 (wholesaler in Aldergrove, I’ll look him up)
scotchman - stole my prawn one
cheaper than 600... and with nylon NOT poly
contact for rope guy is cminke@telus.net. He has a farm and sells blueberries and has a couple shipping containers full of rope! Hah

do yourself a favor and buy 500' of floating rope.
Way easier to retrieve.
Island outfitters will also set you up with everything you need.

Also built my own. Bought all the stainless components from industrial marine supply in Port Alberni. Got the 3 strand floating rope from a local industrial wire rope store. Spliced all the eyes myself and used marine grade shrink wrap on all the splices also. Turned out awesome and it was fun to build!

Easy to build an anchor system for halibut.
Catching them anywhere other then north and west is another story.
Good luck you guys

Yup got all the stuff I needed when the USA CDN $ was at par and made it up myself, used it many years killin Hali in Bamf . Was fun putting it together and seeing it work for years. One note of caution when your out there dont go off the ball and try to hook back up at sea, damn tough and dam dangerous if ya ask me . Currents are very very deceiving ..tight lines and stay safe all

I paid 500 for mine at Trotac Marine sized for an 18 ft boat. Personally for the time etc to save like 100.00 just get someone to make it. You get it sized right too boat your using and advice.
Seems to be almost what your looking for.

I’m not a fan of those plastic things I think the ring is better.
