  • Up/down Panel Switch
  • Emergency crank / clutch release handle


Features

  • Unique spacer tube design allows installation through virtually any deck thickness and the multiple mounting positions and self aligning gearbox ensure optimal location of gearbox and motor in virtually all installation situations
  • Fully automatic rope / chain windlass is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 1/4" (6mm / 7mm) chain spliced to 1/2" (12 mm) three strand or 8-brait (plait) rope
  • The ingeniously designed rope/chain gypsy (chainwheel) is able to accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences within the specified chain size diameters suitable for use with the RC8 Series
  • Full disassembly capability of topworks utilising handle provided and an Allen key
  • The RC8 Series is manufactured from marine-grade 316 stainless steel for long term durability
  • The heavy duty stainless steel pressure arm is designed to effectively help grasp the rope/chain splice, giving the RC8 an unparalleled level of performance
  • In combination with a heavy duty, large wire diameter, stainless steel preloaded spring, the pressure arm always exerts maximum control pressure
  • The RC8 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes for those who desire a Low Profile, elegantly styled windlass on their foredeck
  • Huge, through deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker
  • Full disassembly capability of the topworks utilising only the handle provided and an Allen key
  • Manual override using the emergency crank handle provided
  • Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides high efficiency output drive via precision worm and worm wheel


All RC Series windlasses are fitted with Maxwell's unique Wave Design™ chainwheel

  • This patented rope/chain wheel incorporates two unique design concepts that greatly improve the handling and control of the rope/chain spliced rode
  • The outer ribs of the chainwheel are angled slightly forward ensuring that the rope and the chain are smoothly guided in the wheel during anchor retrieval
  • As the rope pulls into the wheel, the opposite facing inner ribs grip the rope in an undulating manner, securing the rope more firmly in a 'wave pattern' action that is far superior to the traditional 'jam cleat' manner of holding the rope
  • Not only does this Wave Design™ hold the rope more securely, it is also kinder on the rope resulting in increased longevity of your anchor rode
  • Wave Design™ Chainwheel Is fitted to all RC Series windlasses, designed for anchor rodes with any marine grade chain, G4, BBB, Proof Coil and Metric

Perfect fit and nice material
Color: Blue, Size: Small
This is a really nice addition to my teen son's wardrobe because the cloth is great quality and it fits him perfectly. It looks good on him and holds up well, making it a very solid purchase for a teenager. We initially ordered the wrong size, but the exchange process was quick and prompt.

Great purchase. Waist is a little big but it will work well.
Color: Light Brown, Size: Small, Color: Light Brown, Size: Small
Super fast one day shipping. The quality is good and the fit is good. He is 5 foot 11 and his waist is 30 inches. He has long arms and the jacket lands perfectly at his wrist. The pants were a little large in the waist and the length is a little long.

Fantastic suit, especially for the $$$!
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
Bought this for my husband and my son to attend our daughter’s wedding as they had nothing to wear at all. I was kind of scared when I ordered 2 sets of these suits, I had read so many reviews that I was totally overwhelmed and didn’t know if I should get it or not, my head was literally spinning as the reviews were all over the place. So, we had went to Men’s Warehouse earlier in the day, so I had their suit jacket measurements, so I used those numbers, but tbh, I just went with the size that they usually get when getting clothes in general and their suits fit great! I was so relieved!! They looked so handsome oh my goodness! These suits fit the way that they are advertised to fit, which is “slim fit” which means they fit like a glove! Slim fit does not mean “too small” it means that these suits are not baggy or oversized, they fit the body just right! They were not wrinkly when taken out of the package, they were very nice quality, the pants were made with a nice material, they did not feel cheap at all. Everything was great!! I was so impressed with everything! I could not believe that I got both my husband and my son a 3 piece suit for less than $100 each! Both of them said that their suits were extremely comfortable and they had no problem wearing them all night. You could tell by their faces that they felt confident in them, and they knew they looked good. Very happy customer!!

Better than expected
Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large
I took a chance hoping for the best and the three piece set was better than expected and WAY more affordable than renting one. Fit my son well, who is about 215lb 6ft tall. A little snug at the belly, but great fit, zipper up fine, came with extra buttons. The material felt of decent quality and looked like a rental. My son got to fit in for his prom at a reasonable cost and good appearance without breaking the bank
