Choosing the Right Windlass for Your Boat

Selecting the appropriate windlass depends on your anchor and chain weight. For a 10m (33ft) boat, a 270kg (600lb) pull windlass is typically suitable. Lewmar recommends multiplying the total weight of your anchor and chain by four—this number should be less than the maximum pull of your selected windlass. If your calculation meets or exceeds the windlass's maximum pull, opt for the next larger model to ensure safe and reliable anchoring.
