    With an end-stop sensor and brass wire ring on the anchor line, the anchor automatically stops at the water line in parking mode. This allows the anchor to rinse away mud or any seabed materials before carefully settling the anchor in its final secure position.

    The automatic free-fall function allows the release of the windlass anchor line in a controlled manner, maintaining slight resistance ensuring the line doesn't rush to the bottom. It releases as much line as required for the water depth and length for the mooring.

Anchor windlass for internal mounting, suitable for boats up to 70 feet. Maxi 44 is a powerful windlass with automatic free fall and parking mode features. 

The mounting bracket can rotate 360 ​​degrees, so you have numerous mounting options: against the transom, front bulkhead, or hanging horizontally below the deck. The electric motor and rope guide are rotatable, simplifying the installation considerably by enabling mounting on surfaces with a different angle in relation to the transom. Available in 12V and 24V.

The automatic free-fall function allows the release of the windlass anchor line in a controlled manner, maintaining a slight resistance ensuring the line doesn't rush to the bottom. Therefore, it releases as much line as required for the water depth and length for the mooring. 

Parking mode provides another user-friendly feature. With an end-stop sensor and brass wire ring in the line, the anchor automatically stops at the water line or 'rinsing position'. This allows the anchor to clean away any mud, seagrass, or other sea bed materials before carefully settling the anchor in its final secure position.

Accessories are available in several variants to enable tailored solutions for various boat types. The anchor windlass requires an MCU control box, circuit breaker, control panel, and other accessories such as thru-hull fitting and anchor line. 

Deciding to mount on the starboard or port side could depend on space. With the Maxi 43 and Maxi 44, you can decide which side you want to install the gypsy. We recommend having the gypsy facing towards the middle of your vessel instead of out towards the hull. This will allow easier access for service and maintenance. However, this depends on your boat's construction and your preferences.

  • Maxi 43 has the gypsy fitted starboard, ideal for mounting on the port side 
  • Maxi 44 has the gypsy fitted port, ideal for mounting on the starboard side (see image above)
