Reviews
Muir windlasses offer the ultimate in anchoring performance, reliability and style.
- Will Mure
Why I really like Muir winch and anchor gear
“There are a number of reasons why I really like Muir winch and anchor gear. When we were cray fishing, then drop lining, the muir gear is simple to operate, no matter what the sea conditions are”
- Ilja Van
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”
- Toby Richardson

“we’ve always had a good working relationship with Muir. Never a problem, and never any reasons for there to be one, because their product is very good.”
