Superyacht Anchoring Equipment
For over four decades Maxwell has been supplying anchoring solutions to the global marine market. The unique requirements of the Superyacht industry have driven Maxwell to excel in this demanding market. Quality, reliability, performance and style are a must. Superyacht owners and captains depend on the finest equipment aboard their luxurious vessels to see them safely around the world and have come to rely on Maxwell over the years. 
The 'SY series' gives Maxwell the ability to offer customers highly competitive, top quality equipment, without over or under specifying power, strength, reliability or performance.
Conceived and designed in response to the demand for bigger and stronger anchor windlasses aboard todays larger Superyachts and Megayachts. Maxwell has once again broken through the innovation boundary.
The above deck components are styled to perfection on the outside, yet strong and reliable on the inside, to complement the form and function of a Superyacht.
The finish and selection of stainless steel is world class, and workmanship of the highest order is evident at first glance.
The superbly styled 'SY Series' represents a revolutionary level of modularity and flexibility demanded by today's Superyacht Naval Architects and/or engineers.
Maxwell's HWC windlasses offer a hydraulically powered, totally above deck anchoring solution. The chainwheel can be operated separately by the simple release of the clutch cones, allowing smooth and safe control during a free-fall operation. For rope handling the capstans can be operated independently of the chainwheels.
All Maxwell vertical series windlasses combine modern, compact design with rugged dependability. Bolt on installation is simplified by the modular design which guarantees precise alignment of gearbox, shaft and above deck components. The warping capstan can be operated independently. Band brake design allows smooth and safe control during free-fall operation.
