Default Re: Help Picking a Windlass

Here's what I meant by vertical

versus horizontal

The horizontal is a lot bigger on deck but throws the rode straight down. The vertical is a cleaner look but the rope comes out to the side so you need the weight of the falling rope to pull it down in to the locker making that 90 degree turn down.
