14.4 ELECTRIC WINDLASS
General points
- The windlass is DC powered.
- The windlass is designed for anchoring purposes: Any other use is dangerous and forbidden.
- An operation relay is fitted to the electrical circuit.
- A circuit-breaker protects the power supply to the windlass.
- The windlass operation is activated by an operational interlock relay which is powered by the
engine's alternator: the windlass only works when the boat's engine is running.
- The controls to raise/lower the windlass are protected by a circuit-breaker positioned
between the batteries and the windlass relay.
- Your boat may be equipped with a chain meter: this shows the length of chain let out.
Operation
- Before lowering the anchor, make sure that the chain or anchor rode is securely attached to
the clinch.
- Activate the circuit-breaker then use the control to start the windlass.
Control: Steering station
- When at sea, secure the chain or anchor rode to secure points such as the chain
stopper or the anchor rode to the belaying cleat (the windlass must not be used as the
only method of securing the chain or rode).
- In the case of dual control, be careful to use just one control at a time.
- When raising the anchor, use the boat's engine to move towards the position of the anchor,
until the boat is just over it: never use the windlass as a winch to move the boat forward.
- When out at sea, cut the electrical supply to the windlass.
- Cut the electrical supply when using the windlass manually.
