What are the main differences between a vertical and horizontal Lewmar windlass in terms of functionality and deck space?
Vertical and horizontal Lewmar windlasses differ primarily in how they are mounted and how they interact with deck space. A vertical windlass requires less horizontal deck space as the gypsy and motor are mounted vertically, making it ideal for boats with limited deck area and ensuring the anchor chain aligns easily with the chain locker. In contrast, a horizontal windlass mounts completely above deck, which can simplify installation and is suitable for boats where deck space is ample, providing durability and easy access for maintenance, while allowing the anchor to be stowed securely on deck.
In selecting the right windlass, Lewmar provides a complete range of products, each with specific features to suit different boating needs. The windlass selection guide helps boaters navigate options such as the pro-series, which includes models with both wired and wireless remote kits for flexible control. High-quality accessories, like the chain stopper and 3-button wireless remote, enhance safety and functionality by securing the anchor and offering easy operation. Additional features, including manual recovery and a durable gypsy assembly, ensure reliable performance in varied conditions. Lewmar’s commitment to quality and performance means that every windlass, whether for use with a rope or chain rode, operates smoothly and securely, keeping the anchor stowed safely.
How does the gypsy in a Lewmar windlass facilitate the handling of different chain sizes?
The gypsy in a Lewmar windlass is designed with precision grooves to securely grip various chain sizes, allowing for smooth and reliable operation. This versatility in handling different chain rodes makes it adaptable across a wide range of anchoring setups and anchor sizes, enhancing the reliability and performance of the windlass. Additionally, the gypsy’s compatibility with both chain and rope ensures flexible options for boaters in different marine conditions.
How does the solenoid function within a Lewmar windlass to control anchor deployment and retrieval?
The solenoid in a Lewmar windlass acts as an electrical switch that controls the flow of power to the windlass motor, enabling precise anchor deployment and retrieval. When activated, it allows the windlass to operate in both directions, managing the anchor's movement while keeping it securely stowed when not in use. This mechanism, paired with controls such as a rocker switch or wireless remote, provides reliable performance for safe anchoring.
