The VWC Series is designed for automatic vertical handling of chain-only anchor rodes while offering an independent capstan for the retrieval of a secondary rope and chain rode or to assist with docking procedures.

Features:

• Fully automatic single or dual direction chainwheel operation
  
• High-quality finish on above deck components, manufactured from marine grade stainless steel (AISI 316), for long term durability

• Anodized aluminium gearbox and spacer tube on all models
