OS 335

THE ANCHOR MUST BE POSITIONED SO IT DOES NOT REST AGAINST THE HULL

SIDES AND BE PROPERLY SECURED AT ALL TIMES WHEN IT IS STORED IN THE AN-

CHOR LOCKER. A LOOSE ANCHOR IN THE ANCHOR LOCKER WILL BOUNCE AND

CAN DAMAGE THE BOAT. DAMAGE RESULTING FROM THE ANCHOR BOUNCING IN

THE ANCHOR LOCKER IS NOT COVERED BY THE PURSUIT WARRANTY.

WINDLASS (Optional)

The optional windlass is mounted to the deck near the rear of the pulpit above the rope locker. The anchor

is stored on the pulpit and is raised and lowered by the windlass. The anchor line is stored in the rope locker

and routed out through the windlass to the anchor chain.

The anchor is lowered by releasing the anchor from the cleat or chain binder on the pulpit and activating a

“DOWN” control at the helm.

AFTER THE ANCHOR IS SET, THE WINDLASS MUST NOT BE LEFT TO TAKE THE EN-

TIRE FORCE FROM THE ANCHOR LINE. THE LINE SHOULD BE MADE FAST TO THE

ANCHOR LINE CLEAT TO RELIEVE THE LOAD ON THE WINDLASS.

Boats lying to their anchor in a high swell or heavy weather

conditions will snub on the line. This can cause slippage or

apply excessive loads to the windlass.

The windlass should not be used as a winch to move the boat

over the anchor. The boat should be moved under its own

power to the anchor and to break the anchor loose.

DO NOT USE A WINDLASS AS A SOLE MEANS OF SECURING AN ANCHOR IN THE BOW

PULPIT. ALWAYS SECURE THE ANCHOR LINE TO A CLEAT OR CHAIN BINDER BE-

FORE OPERATING YOUR BOAT.

The anchor is hauled in by releasing the line from the bow cleat and activating the “UP” control at the helm.

Once the anchor is retrieved, independently secure the anchor to the chain binder or a cleat to prevent it from

being accidentally released. This is especially important while the boat is under way.

The windlass manufacturer provides an owner’s manual with its product.

A WINDLASS MUST BE USED WITH CARE. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU

READ THE OWNER’S MANUAL AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE SAFETY INSTRUC-

TIONS AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE WINDLASS BEFORE USING IT WITH YOUR

BOAT. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT LIMBS, FINGERS, HAIR AND CLOTHING ARE KEPT

CLEAR OF THE WINDLASS AND ANCHOR LINE DURING OPERATION.

WINDSHIELD

Anchor Line Secured to Cleat
