You can take out all of the chain and put the plastic tiles that  
clamp together down there, and then that should stop most of the noise.

You could try blowing up a beach ball, old car inner tube or  
something akin to that and stuffing it on top of the chain.

Or, if the area is fiberglass, some old fluffy towels for the chain  
to rest on might also work...

The chain rattles. Specifically, just aft of the anchor locker is a  
50 gallon water tank. The rattle of chain reverberating through the  
tank seems to magnify the sound.
