Quality and Warranty


QUALITY

HUTTON yacht winches and HUTTON-ORCA anchor winches for sail and power boats are designed and engineered by a close knit team, at our premises in Sydney, Australia. Each member of our team has had extensive experience in the research, product development and manufacture of yacht winches.
Most of us have learned our trade back in the mid sixties, when Malcolm Barlow first started building BARLOW winches. At approximately the same time, BARIENT in California also manufactured yacht winches. From the very beginning, both manufacturers' winches were virtually interchangeable which goes to prove:
'When you see a good thing - copy it'.

In those early years we learnt that winches needed to be reliable and easy to service. Yachties expect their winches to work, even if they have forgotten to service the winches for the last 'x' seasons!
Throughout the years, everyone in our team has been involved in all major developments in our industry, for example:

Some of those innovations have revolutionized our industry, others have added little to the reliability of winches. Often, they were embraced to aid mass production and to make the winches lighter.

At AUSTRALIAN YACHT WINCH we have, in accordance with our primary goal, stuck by the original concept:

To manufacture winches that are reliable, efficient, easy to service and match in presentation and style the best on offer on today's market.

We believe that today's HUTTON Winches and Furlers and HUTTON-ORCA Anchor Winches are a successful and desirable blend of proven engineering and style that enhances the deck layouts of modern sail and power boats.
