ANDERSEN STAINLESS STEEL WINCHES ®

Enduring strength, everlasting finish.

Every Andersen winch is made with the care and craftsmanship that come from more than sixty years of experience. Andersen winches are built to last, to retain their exceptional finish and to deliver season after season of reliable performance and sailing pleasure to their owner through the years. 

Get a grip with ANDERSEN Winches ANDERSEN Winches are all about Design and Engineering. We believe in setting standards, as this is the only way we can ensure a lifetime of safe sailing for our customers and a future at sea for our products. To achieve this, we employ state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, and our staff is dedicated to continuous development. We remain at the cutting edge of winch development by working closely with yachtsmen and sailing professionals to create unique, practical and reliable features.

ANDERSEN POWER RIB™ Andersen winch drums incorporate the distinctive Power Rib™ which ensures a controlled grip on the line at all times, whether trimming or easing. The highly polished stainless steel surface minimises vertical friction and allows the loaded rope turns to slide easily upward as the drum rotates, without the shuddering and excessive rope wear seen on winches that rely on a rough surface finish for grip.

Stainless steel roller bearings and ball bearings carry the highest drum loads to the centre stem of the winch, minimising efficiency losses due to friction.

The self-tailing arm can be rotated through 360 degrees for optimum positioning (40ST and larger). Stainless steel self-tailing jaws adjust automatically to suit various rope sizes.

Andersen winches are designed for simple, straightforward installation and maintenance. Servicing is only required every two years or so under normal use.

Compact Motor™ Electric Winches

Andersen Compact Motor™ electric winches allow you to hoist and trim sails at the push of a button regardless of physical strength, so any crew member can easily and safely trim sails and control lines.

Ease of installation The Andersen Compact Motor™ electric winch is available in two formats for either Above Deck or Below Deck motor placement. Motor gearbox and controller are integrated into one compact unit with no extra control box necessary. Simplified electrical installation requires just the connection of positive and negative power cables to the motor terminals and the connection of the push button using the included output cable.

Efficient, variable speed The Andersen Compact Motor™ is a brushless DC motor carefully matched to a low profile planetary gearbox which requires less space for installation, and draws considerably less current than traditional motor/gearbox configurations. Available in 12 volt and 24 volt models, Compact Motor™ electric winches operate at variable speed in proportion to the pressure applied to the push button, for smooth and quiet operation.

Classic Winches 

Whether you have a smaller yacht, or are just looking for that traditional look, Andersen Classic Winches provide hallmark quality and performance in a simple non self-tailing configuration.

Single and two speed models, suiting conventional top mounted handles are available in sizes 10 to 46 providing a perfect economical solution for trailerable yachts and small keel boats where constant trimming is required.

Traditionally styled, low profile Classic Winches are single speed and available with included base-mounted or below-deck handle configurations. They are standard equipment on many popular classic sailboats of up to 2 ton displacement, including Dragons, H-boats and Folkboats where their beautifully polished finish complements that of the craft.

Electric Conversion Kits

Converting your winch from manual to electric motor-driven operation is easy using ANDERSEN's Electric Conversion Kits. Available in either E1 single speed, Electric Two Speed, or Compact Motor™ Variable Speed power units, our conversion kits can be fitted to most modern ANDERSEN Winches™ ranging from size 28ST to 110ST and are available in 12V or 24V.

Installation is straight forward with all kits including everything you need to do-it-yourself, or have your preferred yard do it for you. A comprehensive installation manual, templates, push button and cable terminals are provided in every kit. Our comprehensive network of Distributors and resellers are always available to answer any question regarding the right conversion kit and installation process for your specific ANDERSEN Winch™.

Special Finishes

Andersen Stainless Steel Winches are supplied standard with the world renowned hand polished surface finish for years of corrosion free performance, beautiful aesthetics and minimal line wear.

ZT Finish A surface finish for stainless steel obtained by hand polishing the surface, and then blasting the metal with a finishing media. The ZT finish is often described as “gun metal grey” or “titanium look”.

Simple Tips on Servicing Your Sailboat Winches

Finally a boat project just made for steampunk fans and wannabe watchmakers..

We continue to knock down the list of boat projects in anticipation of launch day in the northern hemisphere summer (yes, Florida and Caribbean sailors, we know you sail year -round, so rub it in). This week we’re moving onto hardware, winches in particular. If you haven’t serviced your winches in a couple years, or you notice squeaks, groans or slips as you grind, it is high time to tackle this project. We like to inspect our jib-sheet winches every year, but we sail our boats hard and they are exposed to some pretty harsh freeze and thaw cycles.

Fortunately, winch servicing is a pretty easy, and for the wanna-be watchmaker who marvels at moving parts, it’s fun—until you start dropping parts overboard. Thus, our first bit of advice: make sure you have the right winch servicing kit, including pawls and springs, before you start pulling your winches apart. Not only will you be happy you did this when a precious pawl springs start bounces down your cockpit drain (cover them before disassembly!), you will need the kit to determine the level of wear in your existing pawls. (Pawls are the essential, spring-loaded stops that prevent a winch from rotating backward—see image above.)

While using the  right winch grease is important, servicing the winch before the grease turns to gum, washes out, or the pawls start to hang up is more important. Makers recommend annual servicing, but racers and full-time cruisers may go one to three years, and weekend sailors might stretch it a bit further. Three years really would be the max, unless you can live with increased wear. If you go any longer, you risk increased wear and even damage. If the pawls hang up and the drum releases, parts can break, and people can get hurt as the winch handle whips around.

Here is a quick review of the basics of winch servicing. Most major manufacturers offer handy videos and guides like this Harken winch servicing video that can help guide the project. We highly recommend you refer to those before taking apart your winch:

1. Read the instructions. Most winches come apart by loosening a single screw or removing a clip, with little risk of losing important parts. If in doubt, tape a cardboard box around the winch to catch any strays; the caged bearings can stick to the drum and fall out when it is removed. Note the orientation of the line stripper. Move the parts to a safe work area.

2. Work on one winch at a time, and double check that you have the right service kit for each one. Seemingly identical winches that were manufactured just a few years apart in age can have significantly different parts.

3. When disassembling the winch, keep track of the order you take things apart in; a phone camera can be helpful for this. Specifically, watch out for the pawls and pawl springs. If you are working on the boat, a cafeteria tray (or similar) is very handy.

4. Degrease the winch parts with mineral spirits. A paintbrush, tooth brush, and lots of rags are helpful.

5. Replace the pawls and springs if they have seen more than a few rebuilds, if they seem worn, or if the motion is not crisp. These are lubricated with pawl oil, not grease, since grease can thicken and cause them to hang up. A manufacturers winch-servicing kit may contain special oil, but motor oil works well, too. A past Practical Sailor test highlighted several pawl oils for penny pinchers .

6. Grease all of the gears and bearings before assembly. They don’t need to be generously packed the way vehicle bearings are, since excess can run down into the pawls; they just need to be lightly coated with good surface coverage. Wipe a very thin coat of grease on all internal parts to prevent corrosion. Sure, you can run out to your local chandlery and shell out a dozen clams for that fancy-brand winch grease that the maker insists is best for the job. But you could also do a little research, or check out our report on budget priced winch greases , and learn   that in the wide, wide world of lubricants there’s probably half a dozen products that will do the job just as well, if not better, than some brand-name greases.

7. When reassembling the winch, be certain to face the line stripper in the correct direction. Ideally, the line should spill off of the stripper and drop right into the cockpit.

8. Add canvas winch covers. Many people think that winches don’t need protection, but most self-tailing winches have plastic components that are vulnerable to ultraviolet rays. Covers should help prevent lubes and greases from washing out, and we know they will protect vulnerable plastic parts.

If you think you are in need of new winches, or have questions about how winch performance is impacted when you upgrade to halyards or sheets that incorporate high-tech fibers like Dyneema, be sure to check out the upcoming March issue of Practical Sailor. In that issue we look at simple measures you can take to make sure you are getting the maximum performance out of your existing winches without spending a fortune on new ones.

If you are married to the idea of upgrading your winches, Practical Sailor’s most recent winch test evaluates the major brands on the market today, and looks at some innovative new features. Although a few newer models have been introduced since that report, winch designs evolve slowly, so most of the observations from that test are still valid today.

Finally, if you are looking at completely updating your sail handling gear—travelers, genoa tracks, boom vangs, etc.—to accommodate new sails, Volume Two of our sail buying guide “ A Look at Sails ” provides the essential information you’ll need when deciding which products will best meet your needs—whether you are cruising, racing, or doing a little of both.

RELATED ARTICLES MORE FROM AUTHOR

On watch: this 60-year-old hinckley pilot 35 is also a working girl.

I degrease with kerosine, it’s less volatile and a bit easier on the hands than mineral spirits.

I prefer to take my winches off and service my winches in my home workshop. I try to service them in the off season when my boat is on the hard.

When overhauling a winch that can’t be easily removed and must be rebuilt in place, I start with a small cardboard box about 16″ x 16″ x 6″ or so.

I cut a hole in the middle of the box the diameter of the winch, place the box over the winch and tape it in position.

Then when a pawl falls out, as it often does, or a spring flies out, as it usually does, there’s a good chance the box will catch it.

I’ll also note that overhaul time is a good opportunity to examine the installation of the winch. They are not symmetrical devices, and there is a correct rotational orientation for placement. This is a good time to check it and correct it.

I’ve found the hardest part is the initial clean, particularly if it is the first time servicing a new-to-me boat. Being light on grease application also helps minimize cleanup on the next service. WD40 is another alternative for removing tough grease and dirt. Doing the clean up in a paint roller tray helps drain and dry parts. Take pictures during disassembly as some winches can be a puzzle to put back together! I’ll second the advice for taking a look at winch installation as I’ve learned at least for Harkin winches the orientation of line entry and gear placement is important for proper operation.

I do my winches every two years when the boat is on the hard. It is easier to chase loose parts that way. Use a blanket or sheet to line your deck and lifelines for containment. I use diesel to degrease and two buckets. I disassmble one winch and put all the parts in a bucket. My wife degreases them with a parts brush (Auto store) and while she is doing one winch, I am doing the next winch in the second bucket. we swap buckets and so goes the process… I have 11 whinches to do. Harken springs fit most winch pawls. I tried gasoline once but the residue was not compatable with my grease. I have used Harkin, Anderson and Lewmar winch grease and that is the order I like them in. There are others, but heat and seawater are the enemies and for the effort I try and get the best grease I can.

After about 40 years of doing winch maintenance, I got smart. I bought an inexpensive parts washer online and use it to degrease the parts. I use Zep 505 degreaser and a brush attachment on the parts washer. A dunk in fresh water to rinse then Lewmar grease and their pawl oil. I have 17 winches that I do annually. Saves a bunch of time.

The Best Anchor Winch Buying Guide

Choosing the right anchor winch.

To choose the right anchor winch for your boat, consider the following factors:

Remote control

Remote controlled winches are very convenient as they allow you to sit back and relax while the anchor winch does its work of pulling the anchor up or down. Some winches come with a remote, but for the ones that don’t you’ll need to buy one separately. For added convenience, you can choose a wireless remote.

Since anchor winches are an expensive boat accessory, you don’t want to buy a winch that breaks easily. One way to guarantee that you are buying a durable winch is to check whether it comes with a warranty. Since the motor that retrieves the anchor in and out of the water is exposed to friction regularly, this can damage the motor over time. 

Capacity 

To make sure the anchor winch doesn’t give up on you when you need it the most, you must pay importance to its capacity. Before purchasing, check if the anchor winch is sturdy enough to pull the chain, as well as if the rope and anchor are required to hold your boat without breaking. The working load of the winch should be able to lift the entire length of chain and rope when all is completely suspended off the ocean floor.

Anchor chain length

Before purchasing the anchor winch, determine the approximate weight and length of the anchor. Most anchor winches come with recommended rope, chain and boat lengths to allow you to choose the rest of the components accordingly. Depending on your need, you’d either change your anchor setup to suit the winch or buy a new one to suit your current anchor setup.

Likewise, you also need to pay attention to the links in the chains. Regular and long link chains aren’t suitable for anchor windlasses. The right grade and size of chain is needed to ensure it’s compatibility with the gypsy. In case of mismatch, you might need to deal with chainwheel problems such as the chain getting jammed.

Other Benefits of Anchor Winches 

An anchor winch is a necessity for boats carrying anchors that are too heavy to retrieve by hand. Skippers of small-sized boats usually have the choice to either lift the anchor themselves or let an anchor winch do the work for them. Some of the benefits that anchor winches provide are:

When in the waters, you might experience situations where you need to pull the anchor and leave in a hurry. Weather conditions can change rapidly or an approaching vessel are two of the many reasons you might need to retrieve the anchor and leave quickly. With winch anchors, there are also less chances of falling overboard and injuring yourself.

Physical exertion

Anchors tend to be very heavy with some weighing 30,000 pounds and above. This makes them very difficult to pull manually. An anchor winch relieves you of the hassle of having to pull the weight manually, and operating one is as simple as pushing a button to set and retrieve. 

Moving locations

If you need to lay and pull your anchor manually, you probably wouldn’t be able to move fishing spots very often. An anchor winch allows you to move the boat with less time and exertion.

Types of Anchor Winches

The most commonly available types of anchor winches include but are not limited to:

Windlass anchor winches

The rope and chain with these types of winches rotate over a winch that is in a horizontal position. While a winch wraps around the chainwheel, this anchor winch retrieves the anchor rod and stores it in an anchor storage locker.

Capstan anchor winches

Also known as a vertical windlass, this type of winch stands in an upright position and works to rotate the anchor line horizontally around it. Capstan anchor winches feature a 180 degree wrap of the anchor rode around the chainwheel.

Drum anchor winches

This type of anchor winch stores all the chain and rope on a drum, which makes it suitable for vessels that don’t come with a storage locker to gather the chain and rope in it. This type of winch works by pressing a button on the dashboard.  With these types of winches, only a limited length of rope and chain can be contained with the drum. For added length, you can utilize a rope that is thinner and has a higher breaking strain.  This will let you store more rope on the drum.

Anchor Winches

Anchor winches or anchor windlasses are machines that are used to let out and bring back up a boat's anchor. These boat anchor winches help to reduce the strain and difficulty of manually raising your anchor. Wholesale Marine carries a wide range of anchor winches for various size boats and boating needs from brands like TRAC , Attwood , Minn Kota , and EZ Anchor .

There are two types of anchor winches: electric anchor winches, and winches that work off hydraulics.

When selecting the right winch for your anchor system, it is important to consider the size and the weight of the boat.

For smaller watercraft, the TRAC G3 25 Electric Anchor Winch is a great option for boats up to 20 feet. It provides excellent holding power using a 12-Volt DC battery.

Learn more about the map styles

Each map type offers different information and each map style is designed for a different purpose. Read about the styles and map projection used in the above map (Physical Map of Novosibirsk).

Physical map

Physical map illustrates the mountains, lowlands, oceans, lakes and rivers and other physical landscape features of Novosibirsk. Differences in land elevations relative to the sea level are represented by color.

Green color represents lower elevations, orange or brown indicate higher elevations, shades of grey are used for the highest mountain ranges in the world. Underwater topography is represented by blues. Darker blues are used for the deepest water, lighter shades of blue represent shallower water such as the continental shelf.

Geographic map projection

A map projection is a way how to transform points on a Earth to points on a map. This map of Novosibirsk uses Plate Carree projection. The Plate Carree projection is a simple cylindrical projection originated in the ancient times. It has straight and equally spaced meridians and parallels that meet at right angles.

All projections from a sphere to a plane are distorted. The drawback of the Plate Carree projection is that it doesn't make an attempt to compensate for these distortions. For the general view of Novosibirsk, this is not a significant problem. The detailed maps use the Mercator projection which preserves the shape of small areas better.
