Which Boats This Drum Winch Fits

The EZ-6 drum anchor winch is recommended for cruisers, commercial craft, and large fishing vessels up to 55 ft. Its drum stores either 120 m of 10 mm rope or 100 m of 12 mm rope with a chain leader. Buyers should confirm the selected rope diameter, rope length, chain leader arrangement, and drum capacity before ordering.

the listed maximum pull is 2,645 lbs. The 661 lbs working-load rating provides the separate continuous hauling value. Buyers should use the continuous rating when assessing normal anchor retrieval requirements.

Materials, Technology and Use

The marine-grade 316 stainless steel casing and drive shaft form the listed drum-winching assembly. The product data states an IP67 fully submersible waterproof motor. The patented automatic mechanical mechanism provides the listed free-fall release function.

Salt deposits, sand, and debris can still collect around the stainless steel casing, drum, rope, chain leader, and deck hardware. Regular cleaning and inspection remain necessary. The drum retains the listed rope capacity rather than using a rope-to-chain gypsy.

Compatibility and Installation

The Admiral horizontal winch measures 340 mm high by 420 mm wide and weighs 75 lbs. Installers should verify deck structure, mounting space, cable routing, drum clearance, and access to the free-fall mechanism before installation. The available product details do not list a deck-thickness range.

The 12V DC system requires a 125A circuit breaker. Electrical planning can include drum-winch power planning around the listed circuit-protection requirement. The provided product data does not state average current draw or confirm controls, contactor, or circuit breaker as included.

Care and Operating Notes

Rinse the casing, drum, rope, chain leader, and exposed hardware with fresh water after saltwater exposure. Clear salt, sand, mud, and debris from the drum and free-fall mechanism before operation. Inspect rope condition, chain leader, release mechanism, visible fasteners, and electrical connections before departure. Follow the manufacturer manual for service procedures, lubricant selection, disassembly, and approved replacement parts.

Warranty and Support

The EZ-6 carries a 5-year limited warranty on the motor and gearbox. The provided warranty term does not define coverage for labor, corrosion, drum, rope, chain leader, shipping, or installation components. These terms reflect manufacturer-stated coverage, and buyers should verify active warranty policies directly with the seller or manufacturer prior to purchase.

Before Ordering

Confirm whether your anchor rode uses 120 m of 10 mm rope or 100 m of 12 mm rope with a chain leader. You should compare your vessel with the up-to-55-ft application guide, reserve space for the 340 mm by 420 mm housing, and account for the 75 lbs dry weight. Verify that your 12V system can use the required 125A circuit breaker. Confirm controls, contactor, circuit protection, anchor, rope, chain leader, and mounting hardware with the seller because the provided product data does not confirm them as included.
