Lofrans X2 with drum

I needed to replace my anchor windlass. I specked the correct winch, especially the gypsy for my UK 10mm chain. You sent to me an anchor winch with the incorrect gypsy. You replaced the gypsy, but it took a long time and I had to pay the import duty on the replacement gypsy. I believe you should reimburse me the cost of what I paid the South African customs. I also suggest you include both ISO & DIN gypsies when its for 10mm chain, as there was no indication on the packing box referencing which gypsy it was before opening the box. I have fitted the Lofrans X2 and now I have a working anchor windlass.
Please pass my sincere thanks to Stanley whos without his help, the problem; your problem, would not have been resolved.

Great purchase, perfect replacement!

After over 30 years of service, my old Lofrans Airon winch gave up, so I decided to replace it with the X2 model with bell, purchased from SVB.
Installation was easy because it fit perfectly into the existing holes. The winch is powerful, quiet, and pulls the chain without any hesitation.
I'd say it was an excellent purchase: a quality product and impeccable SVB service!

Works perfectly

It's a bit quieter than the old anchor winch. It's a bit slower in retrieval speed, but still good. It fits perfectly into the old holes. It's nice that you can loosen the top and let the chain out. Unfortunately, that wasn't possible before; it was probably too old and jammed.

100% recommended

Good build quality and materials. My boat weighs 7,500 kg and the windlass moves it and raises a 15kg rock anchor without any problem. It has strength and is fast picking up the chain. I use 40 meters of 8mm chain. I am very happy with it.

High quality and solid anchor winch.

I bought this anchor winch from Lofrans, basically because I had to replace an old Plastimo PWV1000 and it looked as if the position of the screws was identical or you could use the same holes on the deck. Fortunately, that worked out pretty well. However, a tip for potential buyers is to check the thickness of the deck, as the screws supplied as standard are sufficient for a maximum of 4cm. I don't know if you can adjust this when ordering, but I had to "tinker" longer screws on site because these screws without a head are not available everywhere. Otherwise everything went well. Delivered in a flash and the winch works perfectly.

They are under construction, and I can say that the product is much better than the 2004 Tyron 1000 W. Both the texture and the materials used are very different, more massive, as the design is better. Fortunately, the fixation plate holes have remained unaltered, except for the chain passage that needs a 60 mm enlargement, no problem. I recommend a positive pole mark on the engine that indicates APP rotation. I would definitely recommend considering the price I consider appropriate for the quality. Diego Baret

Probably one of the best winds in this performance class. Very pleasant is the fast downhill of the chain. After 4 years on board, the winds still look as new.
