Anchor Winch Selection

Talk to our team about your application as anchor locker dimensions and the amount of space below deck are important in deciding what type of winch will suit your application.
We have the solution in one of our three categories;

Drum Winch

Ideal where space is limited as they tuck neatly inside the anchor locker.

Vertical Windlasses -

They offer a low profile and do not dominate the foredeck They are characterised by situating the gypsy (top works) above the deck and the motor and gearbox below.

Horizontal Windlasses (Deck Windlass)

Are mounted completely above deck including the gypsy and motor/gearbox.

They provide a 90-degree wrap of the anchor rode around the gypsy.

Generally easier to install and a good option with small anchor lockers.
