Winch Servicing, Repairs & Installations NZ

Power, Control, and Reliability When It Counts

Winches play a critical role in safe vessel operation — whether you’re anchoring, handling sails, or securing dock lines. They work hard, often in the background, until something fails… and usually at the worst time.

At AB Marine, we service, repair, and install manual and electric winches, helping Auckland boaties maintain reliable control systems that operate smoothly in any condition. Whether you're running a yacht, launch, or light commercial vessel, our team will keep your winches working as they should — quietly, efficiently, and with total confidence.
