our 2002 passage 456 has the original horizon 1500 horizontal windlass and although it's still working I know I'm on borrowed time. Wondering who has replaced theirs? It has to be horizontal and clearance is a issue. The horizon 1500 is really a 1000 watt windlass. We have a 65 pound mantus and 220 ft of G4 chain and the 1000 watt motor has worked for us so I'm not sure why I need to replace with a 1500 watt motor. Thinking the Lofrans Kobra would work??
