Update.... Spoke to Tom at Good... Nice to be able to speak directly to the owner of the company. He was very helpful and is sending me some pricing to include installation which he and his crew will do... Turns out he has installed them before on 28 Carolina's and there are a few install tricks that are specific to this boat so I will probably go with them and let them do the install...

A few people have questioned if it wise not to cleat the anchor line down while at anchor and or when the anchor is in the roller and you are underway since it can slip out and or put undue strain on the windlass. Tom assured me that this is not the case with the Good and they are specifically designed so you don't have to cleat it... A big plus in my book since I'm pretty clumsy and don't like going up to the bow in pitching seas.
