The Lewmar V700 is a 12V vertical windlass kit designed for boats up to 35 ft and for rope, chain, or combination rodes. Its flush-mount vertical layout keeps the motor below deck while a 316 stainless steel housing remains exposed above deck, giving the foredeck a clean appearance with strong corrosion resistance. The supplied gypsy accepts up to 1/4 in chain and 1/2 in rope.
The V700 is rated for a maximum pull of 700 lb and a maximum line speed of 82 ft/min. Built-in motor protection helps protect the drive system, while the fail-safe anchor lock helps secure the rode when the windlass is not actively retrieving or deploying. A manual recovery option provides a backup if powered operation is unavailable, and an impact-resistant cover adds protection around the working components.
The kit includes the windlass, switch, dual-direction contactor/solenoid, circuit breaker, and instruction manual. Browse more anchor windlasses for vertical rope-and-chain anchoring systems.
