specific needs. We can custom cut any length of line or line and chain combination that you want in any sizes that you need.
The combinations that you see here are the most popular lengths and sizes that are appropriate for many electric windlasses. Please remember that not all windlasses use the same size and type of line or the same chain. Most will only pull the type of rode they are designed for. The 8 Brait line is compatible with both Lewmar and Powerwinch and will take up much less room in your anchor locker.
