Part of what I was thinking is that the hawse holes are really for docking lines, not mooring. The mooring line needs to feed as the anchors do - much further forward and higher. With a single pennant, you will still swing and put pressure on the cable above striker but hopefully you can greatly reduce the strain.

And yes, she is a beauty.
