One Button Automatic Anchor and Stowage System

This is an example for the microcontroller I designed after I was inspired by Frodda's amazing ship, the "Salsarous lll". The anchors tended to get caught on this amazing creation so I redesigned the system & even included a way to stow the anchors like they did in the past with a simple winch/connector setup that would pull the anchor out and away from the water.

You may need the actual microcontroller as well, but I hope I left enough of a description on it itself that setting up a system like this for your ship works. I highly reccomend putting a hinge between your anchor and the winch to prevent a lot of the insanity that results in this game from direct connections.

Note: While this achor works well in heavy seas, a tsunami can and will cause your anchor to pull a "Free Willie" seconds before you're swallowed up and killed so be sure you have your pose ready so people will know how cool you were in the end!

UPDATE:
This is now a freestanding example of the system in action!

A section of hull was added that bulged a bit to showcase that this system is capable of working even if there is some ship hull in the way that usually makes raising and lowering more difficult! Also; notice that the red antifouling paint marks the mockup's waterline and that the stowage system pulls the anchor way above it!
