Hunting for a tiny chain

[The Advisor10]

I've got a bit of a head-scratcher, does anyone know where to find the small stainless steel chain that attaches to the deck fill cover or the anchor chain dog pins? Mine seem to have disappeared, and I've been having trouble finding a replacement. I need something durable and weather-resistant, ideally stainless. If anyone knows where I can get one, I'd really appreciate the help

Ah yes, the mysterious vanishing deck fill chain. Known to sneak off with socks and 10mm sockets. You can usually find stainless steel beaded or link chains at marine supply stores like West Marine and Defender. Just make double sure its marine grade stainless so it doesn't rust faster than your patience. You can try online too like from Amazon and eBay, if youve got the patience of reading reviews from stores.

Do you know if they stock different chain thicknesses or lengths for deck fill covers?

Yep, those little chains love to vanish!
You need the very small gauge stainless steel chain, probably 1/16" or 3/32" (or similar metric equivalent).
Check places that sell general marine hardware or even industrial supply stores. Sometimes online jewelry supply places have good strong stainless chain too if you need super tiny stuff, just make sure it's actual stainless. Don't forget the little ring or 'S' hook that attaches it!
