The
New Zealand firm RMSD has been building the Auto Anchor 500C remote windlass
control and chain counter for a while, but has now introduced models that
can handle combination line-and-chain rodes and has begun distributing
them in the United States. All models feature up and down presets, a safety
lock, nonvolatile memory, and extensive anchor system diagnostics. The
top-of-the-line 500RCX includes solid-state switching instead of interfacing
to a windlass’ standard solenoid controls and thus gains speed control
and the ability to bring an anchor completely home on its own. Installation
involves fitting a magnet and sensor to your windlass. Prices range from
$595 to $1,495.
