Winches > Electric

Electric winches offer cruising sailors the convenience of powered winches in an easily installed system. Harken offers the most complete line of electric winches available, with sizes ranging from the B40.2ST, which is suitable for use as a primary winch on boats as small as 28' (8.5 m) and for halyards on boats from 32' (9.7 m).

All Harken electric winches, including the smaller sizes, operate in two speeds both when using the electric motor and when cranking by hand. Electric winches from the 56 may be special ordered with three speeds to provide very high line speeds.

Operation is by use of simple waterproof switches that are located near the winch. Inserting a locking handle when the winch is not under load automatically disconnects the electric motor gearbox for racing and cruising without electric power. The disconnect mechanism prevents handle and winch rotation when the switch is activated.

Harken electric winches through the B980 are offered for either 12 or 24 volts. Motors are mounted either vertically or horizontally on winches through the B980 to match your installation requirements. The anchor plate allows separate disassembly of the winch and the motor/gear reduction assembly. Both the motor and gear reduction box feature special anti-corrosion protection.

Ordering information:

Each winch requires two switches, control box, and breaker. See this page. Specify winch drum material by adding A (aluminium), B (polished bronze), or C (chromed bronze) to part number. Polished bronze by special order only.
