Delivery on time
The delivery was quick, as expected.

However, I wasn't notified of its arrival at the depot. Having been informed of an imminent arrival, but having received no further updates, I went directly to the depot two days later and was pleased to find the package, but without having received an email notification.

Please note that the UPS Access Point indicated on the website in Le Pouliguen no longer exists.

Andersen has changed the contents of the set - the product image is no longer accurate.
First, the positives: Fast delivery, and they even sent maintenance instructions by email!

Now the negatives: I have size 16 winches and I'm annoyed with Ronstan & Andersen.

Since the packaging contents were changed, it looks like this: There's only one snap ring in the box, but there are four extra pawls (which don't fit) and eight coil springs (which also don't fit anywhere).

So I have to throw away half the parts because they don't even exist in my winch.

The price of "only" €47.50 (!) suggests very expensive parts. Having to throw away half of them, meaning €23.75, really hurts.


If I only need the springs for the pawls, I can buy a spring service kit for "only" €25.95 (!)

But even then, half the springs don't fit, and out of €26, I'm throwing away €13 worth of coil springs. That's €2.60 per pawl spring (!!!). It's a bit better with Harken; for €16, you get four pawls and eight springs.

When these parts (resources!) are wasted to this extent, you can no longer believe the manufacturer justifies the price. The price is then only justified because customers are dependent on these parts and have no alternatives. And that's exactly where the problem lies.

This pricing policy infuriates me.

SVB sent me a return label and would take the item back. But I need the few parts that do fit.

Air or Sea?
As an overseas client needing the part in a hurry I asked for courier by air.
It worked well, quicker than expected.
Last time it took weeks and weeks, I did not realize that default delivery is DHL surface, not air.
In the BVI we only know DHL air!
Very happy this time!

Like all my purchases from SVB, everything is perfect. Excellent prices. Delivery on time. Plus, SVB sent me the installation and user manuals in PDF format. What more could you ask for?

As I said before, it couldn't be better, others could learn a thing or two from it.
