    I don't know that I'd put my vessel at peril by using an anchor rode with
    an unknown history. It is my understanding that any line that has been
    subject to harsh jerking stress could be beyond it's useful life and break
    at less that it's rated strength because of previous abuses.
    What do the people who live on the hook have to say?
