This winch is designed for easy through-deck installation, with a modular design and precise alignment of the gearbox to the topworks, utilizing marine-grade stainless steel bolts. With its heavy-duty, dual direction motor and anodized aluminium gearbox and spacer tube, the Vetus P100430 is a reliable and efficient choice for all marine winching needs.
