Extremely compact design and very quiet running of the winch! This windlass was developed especially for smaller boats up to about 10 m long and 4 t in weight.

Advice and purchase at boot 2020 At the SVB booth at boot Düsseldorf, I got advice on an anchor winch for our Bavaria 320 S. As expected, I was given competent and friendly advice by the SVB staff. The order was delivered immediately after the fair. The windlass makes a solid and finished impression. A clear recommendation for this product and SVB.

Looks very solid, easy instalation, clear instruction and also the template for drilling is the part of delivery. We will see after a few years of anchoring. But I am very happy - no more pulling 20 kg anchor by hand )

top anchor winch
With a boat weight of 4.5 tons and a 20 kg Delta anchor with a 6-chain, it was completely sufficient. I was surprised by the speed at which it pulled up. Easy to install. I can only recommend the winch, especially as the chain sprocket is also designed for an 8-chain without having to modify anything.

Alvydas U. | Jan 29, 2019 Flag of English
User image of Alvydas U.

Hello, I'm interested about Lofrans Dorado horizontal windlass. I have a wooden boat 8.3 m of length, 2.4 m of width, 3 t of weight and I'm planning to use 7.5 kg anchor (I think it is compatible). No way can I choose which windlass model to choose from by combining anchor rope with chain. Could you please recommend combined anchor rope with chain and compatible Lofrans Dorado windlass model for my boat. Sorry for the my poor english Best Regards, Alvydas

Lofran say that this windlass (Dorado) is available with an optional free fall. I can't see this as an add on on the website. Is it something that you are able to supply?

Hello Robert, yes we are able to order this Windlass for you. But it will be a special ordner for us and for the manufacturer. Please Send us a inquiry to our: [email protected] // and we will request this with the manufacturer and give you a not binding offer. We will need: voltage, watt and chain sprocket. Yours SVB-team.
