The Maxwell range of windlasses and anchoring systems provides safe, reliable performance for both existing boats and new builds. Compact in design and straightforward to install, Maxwell windlasses are ideal for refits as well as for integration into new projects. With robust engineering and innovative chainwheel technology, they ensure smooth rope and chain handling for a stress-free anchoring experience.
Vertical windlasses are the preferred solution for most sailboats and powerboats, offering a clean, compact installation with the motor and gearbox positioned below deck. This configuration maximizes deck space while delivering efficient, quiet operation and smooth rope/chain handling. Featuring Maxwell’s Wave Design™ chainwheel for secure grip and reduced wear, these windlasses provide dependable performance and long rode life. Easy to install and maintain, Maxwell vertical windlasses make anchoring simple, reliable, and unobtrusive.
Horizontal windlasses are an excellent choice for vessels where space below deck is limited or where above-deck access is preferred. With both the motor and gearbox mounted on deck, they provide flexible installation options and simplify servicing without sacrificing performance. Designed for smooth rope/chain handling and consistent operation, Maxwell’s horizontal models offer reliable anchoring control in a wide range of conditions.
Maxwell capstans provide smooth, powerful rope handling for anchoring and mooring. Compact and efficient, they’re ideal where a full windlass isn’t required or as auxiliary equipment. Made from marine-grade materials, these capstans deliver dependable performance for years of service.
Maxwell offers rodes for every vessel size and anchoring style. Choose chain-only, rope-only, or pre-spliced rope/chain combinations. Options include 3-strand or 8-plait nylon for flexibility and easy handling, plus high-strength chains in multiple sizes for dependable anchoring.
