Lewmar CRW400 Windlass

Lewmar CRW400 Captive Reel Windlass 12V Rope-to-Chain Solution

Featuring a unique captive reel design, the Lewmar CRW400 is the definitive mechanical solution for smaller vessels up to 30 feet lacking a dedicated anchor locker. This horizontal unit stores the entire rode on an internal spool, eliminating the risk of line jams and providing a seamless rope-to-chain transition without the need for a chain pipe. The high-torque motor delivers consistent breakout force while the level-wind technology ensures the 35 feet of G4 chain and 100 feet of rope are stowed with surgical precision.

Technology-driven 316 stainless steel and composite construction mitigate high-salinity oxidation and galvanic corrosion. The CRW400 focuses on ownership value through its “hit-the-button” deployment from the helm and zero-maintenance internal drive train. Reliability is reinforced by the integrated sensor that stops the motor during retrieval, preventing structural fatigue on the bow roller. This windlass is the ideal choice for boaters prioritizing a clean deck profile and automated anchor management on performance skiffs and day boats.
