High-performance, heavy-duty windlasses for larger anchor rigs and frequent anchoring, suitable for larger sailing yachts and motorboats up to 15 metres in length. The TIGRES windlass is characterised by its robust construction, high pulling force and tried-and-tested LOFRANS technology, which ensures comfortable and safe anchoring manoeuvres. Furthermore, the TIGRES horizontal windlass impresses with its housing made from seawater-resistant aluminium. Thanks to its horizontal design, in which most of the windlass is mounted above deck, maintenance is made easier and no space is taken up in the anchor locker, making the windlass suitable even for boats with small anchor lockers.
Corrosion-resistant housing
The corrosion-resistant housing is made from high-quality anodised marine-grade aluminium and offers excellent resistance to saltwater and the harsh conditions encountered on board, ensuring a long service life even under demanding conditions.
Independent operation of gypsy and capstan
The TIGRES windlass is fitted with a hauling capstan, which enables the windlass to carry out additional line-handling tasks. It enables controlled handling of mooring and hauling lines and can assist with harbour manoeuvres. To ensure maximum flexibility on board, the gypsy and the hauling capstan can be operated independently.
Electric operation
The TIGRES anchor windlass is powered by a high-performance 1500 W motor combined with a precisely matched gearbox. A relay box is included for straightforward control of the windlass. The powerful motor delivers high pulling force, allowing the anchor to be recovered quickly and safely, even in demanding conditions. For convenient electric operation, a range of optional remote controls and foot switches is available.
For added safety, the windlass can also be operated manually in an emergency.
Manual chain release
The electric anchor windlass is equipped with a manual chain release, allowing the anchor chain to be paid out quickly and under control.

Hello! I would need to know if I can still use this windlass with my chain, which I believe 3/8mm and is 10mm equivalent. Thanks

Is it possible to use this device manually as well, when the power is down?
Dear Ela, yes it is. By Spare part finder, you are able to see the "handle" for that. Yours SVB-team.
I am instrested in purchasing a Lofrans TIGRES Windlass and want to know what extras I will require to wire it up.
Dear customer, everything included is in the manual attached. You possibly will also need a remote and an adaptor for the pole connection as well.
Has anyone from Canada, preferably BC or Vancouver Island - ordered a Tigress Winch from SVB and if so how much did it finally cost you landed at your home all costs inclusive including winch, shipping, customs, brokerages, taxes etc.? Any complaints, problems, advice, warnings, accolades etc? Thanks so much.
Dear customer, we have already been in touch via email regarding your inquiry. Please write back to us with your full delivery info, so we can send you an offer and contact your local authorities regarding customs information. Thanks.
Price Issue Hi, when I talked with you about the order it was €1,098 I think. I was in a different location and had my wife complet order. The packing info showed €1299....can you adjust the price? The order arrived in good condition although I have not yet tested the windlass. Thanks, Robert Rossi
Dear Robert, the price which you initially saw was most-likely without 19% VAT included - this would be the case if you were viewing our webpage from back in the States. Anything shipped within the EU is charged 19% VAT. Many thanks for your understanding.
