Capstan Deck Unit

Effortless Rope Control at the Press of a Footswitch
Lewmar's C-Series Capstans deliver almost effortless rope handling, providing smooth and reliable control with simple footswitch operation. Engineered for demanding marine environments, the capstan offers powerful, controlled hauling - ideal for warps, dock lines, and lifting tasks on vessels up to 32m (105ft).
Warp™ Drum for Superior Rope Protection
The capstan is equipped with Lewmar's advanced Warp™ (Wear and Abrasion Resistant Pattern) finished drum. This unique surface geometry enhances grip while reducing rope wear by up to 30%, significantly extending line life and improving overall performance during repeated use.
Premium Stainless-Steel Construction
Crafted with beautifully polished stainless-steel components, the Capstan Complete Kit delivers long-lasting durability, outstanding corrosion resistance, and an elegant, high-quality aesthetic suitable for modern and classic decks.
Inherent Anti-Runback for Built-In Safety
The integrated worm gearbox provides natural anti-runback characteristics, acting as a mechanical brake to prevent accidental reverse movement and ensuring secure, controlled operation at all times.
Fast, Above-Deck Installation
Designed for efficient setup, the C3 capstan is fastened entirely from above deck, reducing installation time by 35% and making it a practical choice for both new builds and retrofit projects.
