If installed the windlass features a stainless
steel polished “claw” style anchor complete
with swivel. This anchor has high holding
power in most seabeds.
A momentary windlass rocker switch located
at the anchor locker controls the lowering
and retrieving of the anchor through the
windlass. A 50 amp breaker for windlass
overcurrent protection is located at the
battery management panel (See illustration in this chapter).
There is a lanyard with a snap hook to add holding power when the
anchor is in the stored position.
The cleat is for tying off the anchor rode rather than maintaining
constant pressure on the windlass itself.
Note: Never use the windlass to break the anchor free from the bottom. This may
cause excessive strain on the windlass motor and or hardware.
