Actually, I installed a Tigres Lofrans on a 35 MkII. That's a horizontal
windlass.  The installation isn't completely finished, as it still needs
wiring.  Because I wanted to include a lot of chain, I have a PVC pipe
receiving the chain and leading it back to v-berth lockers.  I also
included substantial backing plates, and an anchor roller.
