Vertical capstans (left) take up little deck space and supply ample power for anchoring or warping into a dock.  They allow the line to approach them at a variety of angles making them very versatile. All above deck parts are non-corrosive stainless steel or chrome plated bronze. The below deck unit is protected by a special marine paint system.
