Overview
Deckhand 40 is an electric anchor winch designed for boats running 20–40 lb anchors. Raise or lower your anchor automatically with 12-volt power — no more hand-over-hand rope work, no more leaning over the gunwale. Anchor not included.
Key Features
- 12-volt operation — compatible with standard marine electrical systems
- Anti-drag bottom-sensing system — automatically senses bottom to allow controlled, intentional drifting
- Winch lock — lock the winch at the touch of a button to hold position and stop drift instantly
- Pre-spooled with 100’ of 800 lb test rope
- Universal davit — mounts at the base or in a remote position for flexible deck installation
- Horizontal anchor stow — keeps the anchor flat and secure to eliminate swing underway
Compatible Applications
- For boats using 20–40 lb anchors
- Ideal for hands-free anchoring and retrieval on deck
