The Big Water 45 with Free-Fall Down is ideal for pontoon, deck, and other larger boats up to 24'. When the switch control is pressed down, the anchor is released to free-fall to the lake or river bottom. After the boat drifts and enough anchor line is let out, pressing the switch "up" locks the winch spool. The Big Water 45 retrieves an anchor weighing up to 45 lbs. at 70 ft./min. Switch comes pre-installed on the winch cover, but can be relocated to the boat's helm. Includes a universal anchor roller and 100' of 3/16" prespooled anchor line. Winch measures 10" x 8-1/2" x 6-1/2". Anchor not included.

Anchor Davit or Anchor Roller

"The measurements are not given for the anchor davit for this anchor winch and I would like to share those with everyone. The anchor davit is 3.5 inches wide and 7 inches long. The mounting area of the davit is 3.5 inches wide and 4 inches long. The other three inches are meant to hang off the boat so the anchor does not come into contact with the boat!..."

Replaced by Trac two times in one year.

"The free-fall of the anchor is a great idea but I have had two units replaced in the last year. These units would free-fall great, but, when I would try to set the anchor by pushing the up-switch it would not engage, causing me to manually hold a small gear on the side untill it engaged. I am currently contacting Trac again to see if we can work out something or replace the third unit within 13 months. Trac has..." Read Full Review »

"Problems started with installation. Screws that held the top on were rusted tight. Contacted TRAC and was told they knew this was a problem. Finally got it installed and tried to use it.

"Large brass gear at motor input wobbles and is not flat. Gears mesh on edge not in center and I fear premature failue. Locks up and snaps with a loud pop as gears mesh occasionly.

"I will send a reply to this next June. I just got them mounted on the pontoon boat and had to put it away for winter. I tried them on dry land and they pulled up my 30 pound anchors, but they don`t catch right away going up after you release them. Must try them on water to give a good test.
