Maxwell Tasman 6-6 Drum Winch -Version2 - 1000w

Maxwell Tasman 6-6 Drum Winch – Version 2, 1000W is the latest generation of Maxwell’s trusted deck winch, redesigned by New Zealand engineers to cope with real‑world marine conditions. Built for boats up to 7.0 metres, this drum winch brings professional reliability to your day‑to‑day mooring, anchor handling, and line management.

• Power and speed: A genuine 1000W Maxwell motor delivers a two‑speed operation, yielding 20–30% faster drop speeds so you deploy and retrieve lines with less effort and more control.
• Durability in harsh conditions: Full watertight motor cover and rugged cast alloy mounting brackets protect performance in salt, spray, and spray‑drift environments.
• Unmatched mounting flexibility: The motor can be positioned in 19 different locations and the mounting brackets are designed to be easily adaptive, giving you installation options for most cockpit layouts.
• Emergency and safety features: Emergency freefall release provides a quick, controlled line release when needed, plus a protective circuit breaker (135A) for overcurrent protection.
• Precise control: Up/Down control switch and reversing solenoid give smooth, intuitive handling of line deployment and retrieval.
• Ready to spool with trusted Maxwell components: Supplied with genuine Maxwell parts and a robust rope/chain package—70m of 6mm drum braid and 10m of 6mm galvanized chain—pre‑spooled to get you underway fast.
• Versatile performance metrics: Haulage speeds of 60 m/min when the drum is full, and 13 m/min when a single layer sits on the drum, offering fast reach with controlled line management.
• Designed for real boats: This winch reflects Maxwell’s new generation design—engineered by Kiwis for our sailing and fishing boats, with practical features that streamline installation, operation, and maintenance.
• Fast dispatch: Same‑day shipping ensures you’re not waiting when you need to get on the water.

What problems does the Maxwell Tasman 6‑6 solve? It reduces the effort and time spent deploying and retrieving lines, delivers safer and more controlled line management, and adapts to a wide range of cockpit configurations thanks to multiple mounting locations. It’s ideal for skippers who value reliability in marine environments, want long service life with minimal maintenance, and need a winch that can adapt to different boats and setups without compromising performance.

Who is this for? If you operate a boat up to 7 meters and routinely handle mooring lines, anchors, or spring lines, the Tasman 6‑6 provides a compact, high‑torque solution. It’s equally suitable for small recreational vessels, fishing boats, and tinnies that demand robust, field‑ready gear with a premium warranty.

What’s included: 70m of 6mm drum braid, 10m of 6mm galvanized chain, protective circuit breaker, up/down control switch, reversing solenoid, and genuine Maxwell components—everything you need to install and start using immediately.
