LEWMAR - V8 DECK UNIT WITH PORT HEADSTOCK

The deck unit with port headstock for the V8 windlass has the same features as the other windlasses in the V range , but is specifically designed for larger boats over 33m .

On this model, the chain outlet on the deck unit is oriented so that the chain exits from the left side of the boat and enters the chain well on the left .

What's more, it's made entirely of stainless steel, making it particularly durable and rustproof .

This model of V8 deck unit features an attached friction band brake that allows the anchor chain to be tightened or released by creating a friction band around the sprocket . The brake is used with a winch crank or the remote brake crank with spade link(not supplied).

The deck unit with port headstock for V8 windlass does not include sprocket, geared motor, relay, switch or circuit breaker.

You can also add all these accessories separately to your deck unit to obtain a complete windlass(see accessories).
