Upgrade your anchoring routine with the Maxwell RC6 - 6mm x 10m Chain + 100m Rope, a purpose-built rode kit designed to pair perfectly with your Maxwell RC6 windlass. This integrated setup combines a durable 6mm CMP Din 766 chain with a long, ultra-soft 8-plait nylon rope, delivering smoother handling, quicker prep, and dependable performance on every voyage.

Why boaters choose this kit lives in its thoughtful design and practical versatility. The MaXtek rope is a high-quality, space-saving solution that lays neatly on deck and stores compactly, while the CMP Din 766 chain delivers reliable strength and compatibility with mainstream windlass configurations. The combination is engineered to reduce handling time and maintenance, so you can focus on the water, not gear.

Key features that matter on the water

• 6mm CMP Din 766 chain: a robust, trusted standard that integrates smoothly with the Maxwell RC6 windlass, giving you confident holding power and dependable performance under load.
• 100m of 8-plait nylon rope: the classic, extremely soft and flexible braid designed to minimize kinking and memory, making it easier to retrieve and deploy—even after extended storage.
• Inner-core design: engineered to keep the rope round and enhance grip on the gypsy, reducing slippage and improving overall rope-and-windlass interaction during winching.
• Space-saving, easy-handling rope: the 8-plait construction compresses neatly, helping you store more efficiently on deck and cast off with less tangling.
• Three practical configurations: the kit is built to adapt to different windlass setups, offering flexible options for how you rig chain and rope for smooth operation.
• Direct-from-local suppliers: shipped quickly from nearby stock to minimize downtime and get you back on the water sooner.

How you’ll use it and who it’s for

This Maxwell RC6 kit is ideal for sailors and boaters who value reliability and convenience in their anchor rode. It’s especially well-suited for windlass users who want a ready-made, compatible combination that reduces the guesswork of matching chain size to rope diameter. With the 6mm chain and 100m of 8-plait nylon rope, you’ll have a long, workable rode that’s easy to handle, deploy, and retrieve—whether you’re anchoring in calm bays or anchoring out in breezy conditions.

Practical tips for best results

• Inspect the chain and rope before each season: look for corrosion, wear, or fraying and replace components as needed to maintain strength and reliability.
• Store rope neatly in a dedicated rode bag or coil it carefully to preserve its memory and prevent kinking.
• When rigging, ensure the rope sits cleanly on the gypsy with the chain engaged correctly to minimize slippage during winching.
• Periodically re-tie or replace any pigtails or knots to maintain secure connection points between rope and chain components.
• Match deployment technique to your vessel’s typical anchor depth and wind conditions to optimize performance with the RC6 setup.
