Product Details

The Maxwell RC121012V is a fully automatic windlass designed for effortless anchor retrieval and deployment on boats using 10mm (3/8") short link chain and 16mm (5/8") to 20mm (3/4") three-strand or 8-plait rope. With a maximum pull of 1590 kg (3500 lbs) and an anchor retrieval rate of 15 meters per minute (50 feet per minute), this windlass delivers exceptional performance in its class.

Key Features:

  • 12-volt DC operation with 75:1 gear ratio for smooth, quiet performance
  • Handles 3/8" (10mm) short link chain and 5/8" to 3/4" (16-20mm) rope
  • Double cone-type brake/clutch mechanism enables controlled Free Fall anchoring
  • Wave Design™ chainwheel for superior chain engagement and holding
  • Active Latch Ratchet System prevents backwind during manual retrieval
  • Black hard-anodized aluminum gearbox resists corrosion and allows multi-positioning
  • Marine-grade 316 stainless steel deckplate, chainpipe cover, pressure arm, and chainwheel
  • Large through-deck hawse pipe throat for smooth rode entry and exit
  • Low-profile design with classic Maxwell aesthetics

The RC12 series features Maxwell's innovative black anodized gearbox design that offers faster installation, superior corrosion resistance, and easier maintenance while taking up less space in the anchor locker. The single-stage gear design with fewer moving parts ensures smoother, quieter operation compared to traditional multi-stage gearboxes.

Every Maxwell RC121012V comes complete with all necessary components for fully automatic dual-direction control. The cone clutch design provides smooth, progressive engagement for safe and precise operator control, unlike traditional dog clutches. Emergency manual retrieval is simplified through Maxwell's unique Active Latch Ratchet System.

This windlass is ideal for cruising sailboats and powerboats in the 30-45 foot range requiring reliable, professional-grade anchor handling equipment. The polished stainless steel components and elegant design complement any vessel while delivering the durability and performance Maxwell is known for.

Great price and easy checkout.

It was easy too shop and purchase

Fast. Easy to use website.

quick

Best prices, fast shipping, and product as described. I would definitely recommend Autoplicity.

I like the price and I like the product.the only issue was communication. I didn't receive information that it was shipped until after I received it. The process was still done quickly and I got the product in no time at all.

Very happy with the speed of shipping and with the reasonable price of the product.

you have what i need at a great price

I received my ARP head studs as described and on time with zero problems, and cheaper than anywhere else.Will use again!!!

They are defiantly the cheapest place I found to get the part I wanted. The only bad thing is they say shops within 48hrs and it took almost a week to get mine shipped. But the price was worth the wait.

There is a subcategory for the mazdaspeed model of the protege. Much less digging to find the right parts.

Super fast shipping,lowest price I could find, will buy from again.
