It is very nice that when we call with a question
“It is very nice that when we call with a question [Muir] will try to give you the needed information as quickly as possible, but more than that, they will think with you”
- Captain Peter
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”
- 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%”
