• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines

    • Ads that are inactive for 180 days or longer may be moved to the Classified Archive and locked. Ads may be relisted if the item is still current. Alternatively, owners may contact a Moderator to reinstate an archived ad.
    • The Classified section is for advertising, members are asked to refrain from posting discussions to a Classified Ad. Please start a discussion thread or PM the owner for discussions.
    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.
    • Place only one ad per item (you may repost only when your ad has expired and been removed).
    For Sale ads MUST include:

  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

Maxwell Nilsson V1000 windlass in good working condition. Comes with all necessary parts for complete installation including Electronic Control with self resetting automatic overload protection and deck mounted hawse pipe.

$250 plus shipping. Please note that this is a very heavy and bulky item to ship. I would probably want to ship in at least 2 boxes. Alternatively, I would be willing to meet somewhere in the Northeast Mass/Southeast NH area.

Best way to contact me is via private message here.

Forgot to mention, the chain wheel is sized for 3/8” BBB chain and 5/8” rode.

Ken, what did you replace the Maxwell with and how difficult was it? Ours works as well, but we may be looking at an upgrade before long. One reason: our chain wheel is sized for 3/8” BBB but the PO had been using G4–which seems to work OK, possibly because the steel chain has worn larger pockets in the bronze chain wheel. There are apparently no G4 chain wheels available for the V1000. When I install the 300 ft of new G4 chain I just bought, I guess I’ll know if the windlass needs to be replaced.
 
I replaced it with a Maxwell RC10-10. I chose an RC10 because it has an integrated hawse and is specified to handle the combination 3/8 chain and 5/8 rode I use. I can also find spare parts for it easily. The specs on it say G4 or BBB for the same chainwheel. I can say for certain that it fits my BBB perfectly. G4 and BBB are very close. Maxwell makes another windlass that uses a separate hawse pipe, too. Installation is pretty straight forward. The deck hole needs to be slightly enlarged and the usual wiring. Since I went with an integrated hawse, I sealed up the previous hawse hole and recut in a different location. The chainwheel and the capstan are physically a little smaller on the RC10-10 but its specd for 4x my total anchor and rode weight so I’m sure it will have enough power.
