Reviews
Muir windlasses offer the ultimate in anchoring performance, reliability and style.
- Jock Muir,
Make sure the winch you design
“Until I retire Ill still be unofficially selling Muir winches because it’s the best production the world. I recommend it because it’s my reputation riding on everything I build. You have to be able to put your hand on your heart… when you recommend a product. I have history with Muir now, I don’t check any of their specs or equipment… I just trust them 100%”
- Paul Goss,
Our Muir capstans and windlasses have served us well over the years
“Our Muir capstans and windlasses have served us well over the years, and will continue to do so for a long time to come. Give me plenty of good chain and the right gear to handle it, every time” (in reference to a stormy night at sea)
