For a catamaran, the bridle/snubber is a vital part of system, and will keep the load reasonable. More than monos, there is a temptation to anchor in shallow water, without a lot of chain out, and the surges can be brutal. Make it long ( greater than the beam) and not too heavy (1/2-inch may be right, and carry a spare).
If the snubber is working right you can never approach the chain WLL.
And I would get the electric windlass. Many have a manual back-up if you are concerned about failure (most failures are switches and happen at random, not during storms).
An a good stopper, even though you will have a snubber.
