The crews of small yachts also need to economize on manpower, and there is a need for positive sheet adjustment. Uncompromising quality is an ANDERSEN Winches© hallmark that starts with standard winches. Manufactured in stainless steel, these all feature the Power Rib© to facilitate winching under all conditions and circumstances.
