How to Choose the Right Capstan for Your Yacht ?

Choosing the right marine capstan depends on your yacht's size, the weight it needs to pull and the available deck space. Fixed capstans are a practical choice for regular mooring operations, while retractable capstans are ideal for yachts where space and appearance matter. Check the motor power, pulling capacity, operating voltage and installation requirements before choosing.
