Maxwell P103864 Emergency Crank Handle for RC8, RC10 & Freedom Series Windlasses

The Maxwell P103864 Emergency Crank Handle is a manual backup for RC8 and RC10 Series anchor winches and Freedom Series windlasses. When electrical power to the windlass is unavailable, this handle lets you raise or lower the anchor by hand, giving boaters a dependable way to manage ground tackle even in a power failure or other operational issue.

The handle is constructed of lightweight, durable injection-moulded plastic. Because of this construction, it floats if it is accidentally dropped overboard, reducing the chance of losing it over the side during an emergency retrieval. Two sizes are available to suit the constraints of most foredeck configurations, so boaters can choose the length that fits the deck layout and hardware clearance around their windlass installation.

This crank handle is designed for use specifically with RC8 and RC10 Series anchor winches and Freedom Series windlasses. Keep one aboard as a stowed emergency backup alongside your primary electric windlass controls.
