Michael N.'s SVB Skipper Profile

Which size of boats are this windless recommended for?

Hi Michael, I have a 44ft Longkeel Sailboat 10BRT, with 80m/8mm galvaniced chain / 25Kg (1.) anchor. Maybee in future I will change the chain to 80m/10mm (changing the chainwheel...) and it will be still a good winch for this job. A was doing the job by hand, the last 7 jears, but I am getting older...fat & lazy...;o)) Important : just mount a battery close to the winch, ohterwise you loose to much power... Greets from the 7 seas Andi

Hallo, I am a new owner of this product that I can see that the old owner have got from you. How do I re-program it to my data? I also need a new battery, which I will order from you in the shop.

Hello Michael, The procedure is as followed; send in the EPIRB to us with the filled datasheet from there, preferably fileld with machine not handwritten https://www.svb.de/media/content/pdf/datasheets/service/Datenblatt_EPIRB_PLB_2019_engl.pdf Also put in a note that you like to have also the Art. #26033; we cumulate it then here into 1 order and return it complete to you
