Our verdict

A replacement gypsy for an electric vertical windlass on larger boats. The listing says gypsy only in places and describes a full kit in others.

Overview

A worm gearbox and a splined shaft sit inside the deck unit, driving a gypsy sized for the stated G4 chain. The stainless FastFit feature makes installation easier, and the motor runs from a boat battery supply.

Strong pull and a drive train built for larger boats are the reasons to look at this Lewmar V3, and the FastFit system simplifies mounting. The listing conflicts on what is included, with the title saying gypsy only and the description listing a kit.

Who it's for

Owners of boats in the stated length range who want Lewmar's electric vertical design. Anyone with other chain sizes or a smaller boat should look at a model sized for them.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Robust worm gear drive train
  • Stainless FastFit installation
  • Strong rated pull
Cons
  • Kit contents unclear
  • Fits one chain size
  • Heavy-duty unit needs wiring

Performance notes

A worm gearbox holds the load once the chain stops, and the splined shaft transfers motor torque to the gypsy. Pull depends on the battery supply and the electrical cable size, and the gypsy only grips the specified chain.
