G'day.
Just wondering if anyone has or has had any Simpson and Lawrence gear onboard.
I have a S&L windlass with a stuffed electric motor and cannot seem to find an agent or distributor in Australia.
At this stage it looks like I will have to get one in from the UK.
Does anyone know of an agent in the land of Oz?
Cheers.
Simpson Lawrence was purchased my Lewmar many moons ago.
Steve Morris from BLA is the Lewmar guru (they are Lewmar agents)
Email him on [email protected]
Thanks Rumblefish, but I have been down that road and they said that "we aren't allowed to help you as they are a different company to Lewmar".
I had a simpson lawrence windlass, locked solid one day and was unable to disassemble it due to the corrosion of the motor housing so ended up ditching it and bought a maxwell rc8. Best addition to the boat in a long time.
Cheers Bob.
either gum tree or e bay had a simpson lawrence reco motor for sale with in the last month or so I have no idea if its still there. I have no idea what model it was
To me it sounded like a lady's partner had passed away and she was clearing things out

Perhaps the sell might know where to obtain I dont think this is yours
Thanks HG, the one on e-bay is a little small at 150W.
I need a 12V 600W output and 1000W input.
Cheers anyhow.
If Hutton Winches can't help me out, I will order one from S&L themselves in the UK.
Thanks for your help guys!
