Lewmar CRW400 Windlass

Lewmar's CRW400 windlass represents a step-change in engineering and design for small boat windlasses. Built around a stainless steel chassis with composite bearing technology and a robust UV-stabilised ABS shell, the CRW400 is highly corrosion resistant and therefore suitable for use in salt-water. The unique "level wind" feature ensures that the rode is always stowed neatly on the drum, ensuring tangle-free anchoring and maximum stowage capacity. An integrated switch is fitted to the rear of the housing, together with a circuit breaker reset button. A clear window means that correct functioning of the windlass can be observed, with no risk of trapping fingers or clothing in the winding drum.
