Default Looking For An Anchor Locker

I need some help locating one of these. It came from Cigarette in my '01 Tiger TS. The welds have cracked on it and it could probably be repaired. It would have to be re-welded, sand blasted and powder coated. So, I thought I would check on the cost of new one first. There's no names stamped on it, so I'm not sure where to start.

I left two messages at Cigarette last week and neither were retunred which is not unusual.

Thanks in advance for your help!

One more question if you don't mind . Is that unit made of aluminum or painted steel.
Thanks Rick G.

It's aluminum and the anchor I had in it was too big. We got into some big stuff last year and the anchor beat it up pretty good.

I was at Cigarette and talking to Bud . He said the bow is a bad place to locate an anchor locker . Not that much weight but way too far forward (center of gravity) . I always drop the anchor off the side then just walk to the bow with the line and tie off there .

True enough, but the problem for Stalkin is now he has a hole in his bow that isn't good for anything other than putting another anchor locker in it. The new aluminum Fortress anchor should reduce much of the stress on the rebuilt/replaced locker.
