How they work
Windlasses are powered by one of three methods: muscle power (manual), electricity or hydraulics. We’ll examine the first two types, as hydraulic windlasses are generally used only on very large vessels.
Windlasses generally mount in the center of the boat’s foredeck, aligned with an anchor roller of some sort. Most boats have an anchor roller/mount that stores the anchor when not in use. Other boats store the anchor in chocks or a locker on deck. All boats need a roller to pass the anchor rode smoothly over the rail of the boat.
Vertical Windlasses
More of the low profile unit is hidden below deck and out of the wettest environment. Vertical windlasses generally require a larger hole for the motor, which hangs below the deck. Suitable for boats with larger chain lockers; they require a longer fall for the chain.
