Description

The Powerwinch 46' Class Windlass is a heavy-duty anchor winch engineered for boats up to 46 feet, delivering the power and reliability serious boaters demand. Built with a durable powder-coated aluminum housing and corrosion-resistant components, it is designed to hold up in the harsh marine environment over years of regular use.

FAQ

What size boat is the Powerwinch 46' Class Windlass designed for?

This windlass is designed for boats up to 46 feet in length. For smaller vessels, Powerwinch offers 36' and 41' class models that may be a better fit for your boat's size and anchor weight requirements.

What is a free-fall windlass and why does it matter?

A free-fall windlass allows the anchor to drop rapidly under its own weight by releasing the clutch, rather than being slowly lowered by the motor. This means faster anchor deployment and less wear on the motor. Powerwinch's patented free-fall system gives you precise control over how fast the anchor drops, making it ideal for solo boaters who need to anchor quickly and safely.

Can this windlass be operated from the helm?

Yes. The Powerwinch 46' Class features helm-operated one-touch control, meaning you can deploy and retrieve your anchor entirely from the captain's station. This is especially valuable for single-handed boating situations where leaving the helm is not practical.

What line size does this windlass accept?

This windlass is designed for 5/8" anchor line, which is a standard size compatible with most popular anchor chain and rope setups in its boat class.

Is assembly or installation required?

Yes, installation is required. The unit must be mounted to the boat's bow and wired to the vessel's electrical system. A manual and parts list are included to guide the installation process. Professional marine installation is recommended if you are not familiar with boat electrical systems.
