KWC45 WINCH COMPACT 45
The KCW45 is an ultra compact 2 speed winch for sailboats up to 40 feet (12 meters). It is the only winch on the market to offer both a very fast speed (1st speed) and a very powerful speed (2nd speed). Sending a large sail or tacking will seem particularly easy to you ! It replaces any winch up to size 40. Switch to Compact is obvious when you take the time to compare !
The KCW45 won the international innovation and design competition at the international equipment manufacturers’ fair : DAME AWARD 2019 in its Hardware, Rigging & Sails category

- Versatile ! A winch goes everywhere for sailboats from 20 to 40 feet (6 to 12 meters) which will appeal to both boaters and racers.
- The KCW45 has NO direct competitors. It only has advantages. Even its price is a nice surprise considering the performance offered.
- Very compact winch considering its power. The KCW45 is the power of a size 46 winch in the dimensions of a size 20 winch (130 mm base)!
- The major advantage of such power in a small winch is to divide the efforts by 2. The whole family will now be able to finish hoisting / tucking the sails.
- In addition to this power, we have chosen to design this winch with a very fast first speed. On a tack, a jibe, hoisting a sail, that makes a big difference
- In fact, this choice of speed and power ratio allows, for example, to hoist very quickly the first 2 thirds of a mainsail and effortlessly finish the last third until the final hauling.
- Despite its small size, the winch has 2 speeds and a self tailing (rare on size 20 and 30 winches)
- 25% weight gain compared to a size 46 winch
- Unlike all other winches on the market, The Compact is installed without constraint of the direction of positioning thanks to its design with triple gears.
- Ecological winch ! It uses 2 times less raw material than a winch of equivalent power. It is also less heavy and therefore contributes modestly to polluting less
- Materials chosen to limit corrosion and component fatigue.
- Very high quality manufacturing
- Easy to maintain
- 5 year warranty
- Take the time to compare performance to appreciate the price. A KCW45 has the power of a 46 winch, the speed of a 52 winch and the price of a size 40 in the space of a size 20 winch ! A simply unique winch.
- The KCW45 has won several innovation competitions including the famous Dame Award 2019 in its Hardware, Rigging & Sails category
- The KCW only exists (for the moment) in one size.
- The working load of a KCW45 is the same as a size 40 winch (850 kg). It is for this reason that we affirm that any boat designed to be fitted with a size 20, 30 or 40 winch can be fitted with our KCW45 winch.
- Our winch is sometimes installed on very large sailboats when there is no load problem. This is the case with davit winches or winches intended for hoisting sails which will be hooked. The load is then limited to the weight of the sail.
- The arrow on the headstock indicates the 1st gear which is the fastest
- Ropes from 8 to 11 mm KCW winches are delivered without handle. You can use any crank … including our beautiful carbon cranks. The prices are very close to other One Touch cranks (aluminum, etc.) on the market.

- The KCW45 equips many Mini 650s
