Description
Maxwell RC6 Anchor Winch (12V) – Ideal for Trailer Boats
Compact. Reliable. Built for life on the water.
The Maxwell RC6 is a no-nonsense anchor winch designed for smaller boats that still demand serious performance. With a robust stainless steel and chromed bronze build, it’s a durable unit that’s easy to install and ideal for trailer boats navigating New Zealand’s coastal waters.
What makes the RC6 stand out? Its patented chainwheel design grips rope and chain with a unique wave-action that reduces slippage and wear. It’s smoother, safer on your gear, and built to keep working—season after season.
Whether you’re anchoring off Rangitoto or pulling up in the Waitematā, the RC6 offers reliable holding power without overcomplicating your deck setup.
