My 2003 330 Express has the original Horizon 600 Series Free Fall windlass that is starting to give me problems. Can you help with replacement advice? I have heard that the Lewmar Pro Fish 700 is a close replacement with identical bolt pattern and storage locker hole. Can anyone verify that? I have 1/4" chain and 1/2" mega-plait line that is in good shape. Thank you in advance for your help!
 
%he Horizon 800 windlass has been long gone from the market. I replaced mine with the Lewmar ProFish 700. 1/4" chain and 1/2" 8-plait anchor rode. I have chewed up a few anchor rodew.

I would recommend going up a size for your boat to the Lewmar ProFish 1000 and 5/8 8-plaite.
