Maxwell offers a series of AutoAnchor windlass control products which can be used on any windlass.
The AA710 is a wireless hand held up/down windlass controller and anchor rode counter that allows complete freedom of movement around the vessel while using it.
The AA710 has all the features of the panel mounted AA570 Wireless controller (see below) PLUS the ability to control a bow thruster or deck lights and anchor wash.
The AA570 features easy calibration, as well as configurations for multiple station set-ups using additional AutoAnchor panels or controllers.
Use the AA570 to raise and lower the anchor from the helm, as well as to keep track of how much rode is deployed.
If desired, the AA570 allows you to deploy and retrieve a specific length of anchor rode, which you can set for the depth and weather conditions.
At night, when markers on the anchor rode are difficult to see, the LCD display shows exactly how much rode has been released.
