HR 6000 Mega Horizontal Windlass | Vessels 30-42m (98-138ft)
Built for vessels between 30 and 42 metres (98-138ft), the HR 6000 combines Muir’s precision engineering with the heavy-duty capacity today’s superyachts and large commercial vessels demand. Its horizontal configuration keeps the drive mechanism enclosed above deck, an advantage where space below deck is at a premium.
Rated to a maximum pull of 2900kg, the HR 6000 delivers a continuous pull of up to 2138kg on the hydraulic variant (1409kg on the 24V DC drive), with retrieval speeds up to 20m/min on the hydraulic option. It’s available in 24V DC or hydraulic drive, giving specifiers flexibility to match the windlass to the vessel’s onboard power system.
The HR 6000 accepts short link chain up to 16mm and stud link chain up to U2-16mm, with a 230mm brake for secure chain holding under load. As with the rest of Muir’s Mega Line, it’s designed and manufactured in Australia to ISO9001 standards, built to perform in the demanding environments the superyacht and commercial marine industry requires.

Reviews
Muir windlasses offer the ultimate in anchoring performance, reliability and style.
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%”
Remarkable Equipment
“This remarkable equipment has come out of a little place called Tasmania, which half the world doesn’t even know exists; out of a place called Kingston, which people definitely don’t know of; and its sold by these funny Tasmanians who are dogmatic, passionate and brilliant at what they do. They’re the ultimate product”
I can highly recommend Muir as a company
“I can highly recommend Muir as a company who build superior equipment and who stand by their product anywhere in the world”
