Practical Sailor magazine has done a number of very good reviews recently on windlasses. You can find them at www.practical-sailor.com/Good luck, Don

jpm, Our 36i came with a Quick Antares 1000 windlass, motor is mounted horizontally. It also came with a wired remote part# HRC 1002. Their web site is: www.quickitaly.com I recomend that you purchase all chain for your anchor. The first year we had our 36i, we had chain & rope, but the rope was too stiff and would fall to the bottome of the anchor well. Although the chain 200 feet added some weight to the boat, the chain did fall to the bottom of the anchor well on it's own. Happy Sailing Marty Remedy
