Detailed description

The Lewmar 12 V / 1000 W comfort kit (ref. KC121000) is an accessory set designed to complete the installation and use of Lewmar 12-volt, 1000-watt windlasses. This kit contains the components required for secure and practical anchor handling. It is compatible with Lewmar 1000W vertical windlass models, such as the CPX3 and V3 series, which are typically suited to vessels up to 14 meters in length.

Kit components and compatibility

The kit includes a crank for manual emergency operation, a circuit breaker for windlass electrical circuit protection, and a remote control for the cockpit, enabling "up/down" operation from a distance. These components are specifically sized to work with Lewmar 12 V / 1000 W windlasses, ensuring seamless electrical and mechanical integration. Compatible windlasses often feature 316 stainless steel for exposed parts and may include sealed IP67 motors for enhanced resistance to marine environments.

Lewmar 1000W windlass features

The Lewmar 1000W windlasses for which this kit is intended are designed for efficient anchor handling performance. They are equipped with a powerful motor for fast line retrieval and include a manual recovery system in case of electrical failure, often operable with a 1/2-inch socket wrench or a 12 mm ratchet wrench. These windlasses can handle chains of 6 mm, 8 mm, or 10 mm diameter depending on the specific model. Using this kit enhances the user experience by providing both electrical safety and convenience of operation from the helm.

Expert opinion

« Lewmar comfort kit: essentials for 12 V / 1000 W windlasses »

This Lewmar comfort kit is a fundamental assembly for anyone equipping or modernizing a 12 V, 1000 W Lewmar windlass. Its practical value lies in providing essential control and safety components that are not always included as standard with the windlass alone. The circuit breaker, for example, is a key element for protecting the electrical installation, preventing overloads and ensuring the longevity of the windlass motor. Integrating a cockpit control unit transforms the anchoring experience, allowing quick and comfortable operation without leaving the helm, which is particularly useful during delicate maneuvers or in bad weather.

Installing this kit is relatively straightforward for a marine technician or experienced sailor. It involves wiring the circuit breaker inline with the windlass power supply and connecting the cockpit control unit to the control circuit, following Lewmar’s electrical diagrams. The emergency crank handle is an essential backup feature, and its inclusion in the kit ensures this critical functionality is always within reach. This kit stands out from generic solutions due to its guaranteed compatibility with the Lewmar ecosystem, minimizing the risk of incompatibility and maintaining the windlass’s nominal performance.
