NOTE TO BOAT BUILDER

 

 

 

Experience has shown that, on long ocean 
deliveries, sulphur from the ship's exhaust can settle 
on polished surfaces, which can affect the quality of 
the finish. 
Please ensure that, upon completion of installation, 
the windlass is treated with suitable corrosion 
protective coating (“CRC 3097 Long Life”) and 
wrapped in plastic film. This ensures that your 
customer receives the windlass from you in the same 
top quality condition as you received it from Maxwell.
