Reviews
Muir windlasses offer the ultimate in anchoring performance, reliability and style.
- Rober Clifford,
I still have great pleasure in specifying Muir winches
“Muir engineering have gone on to establish a global reputation as one of, if not the best, in the business... I still have great pleasure in specifying Muir winches on Incat new builds”
- Alan Stever
Stebercraft vessels
“Stebercraft vessels are built to rigid design and exacting marine standards… we will still be supporting Muir Winches ‘til the cows come home”
- Jos Scholten
Which can all of a sudden be the last bit of hope of surviving
“The fact that Muir always keeps the focus on their main business, being anchor systems, gives me the confidence that my customers can rely on that ‘shiny thing on the foredeck’ which can all of a sudden be the last bit of hope of surviving”
