If your boat is fitted with an electrical windlass, keep the engine running during all
anchoring operations to avoid discharging the batteries. In case of battery failure,
STERN ANCHORING:
- Stern anchoring should be performed with the engine stopped,
- Secure the required length of the cable on the mooring cleat,
- Pay out slowly to avoid damaging the propeller or rudder blade.
All windlass operations are dangerous; therefore,
the anchor line shall always be clear and free;
Always proceed with care and using gloves.
RECOMMENDATIONS/MAINTENANCE
After every trip, rinse the windlass and anchor chain with fresh water.
Refer to the manufacture's brochure for windlass maintenance
