Having reliable control over your anchor winch is non-negotiable. When you're managing your position in a busy anchorage or dealing with changing conditions, you need a switch that responds instantly, every time. It’s a critical piece of gear that provides safety, convenience, and peace of mind.
Here at Boat Accessories Australia, we stock a massive range of anchor winch switches designed for the harsh marine environment. From simple, rugged foot switches to advanced control panels, you’ll find the right fit for your vessel, your setup, and the way you like to boat.
Operating your anchor winch shouldn't require you to leave the bow or juggle controls when you need your hands free. Our deck foot switches are the perfect solution for hands-free convenience, letting you manage lines or fend off while raising or lowering the anchor.
Built tough to be mounted directly on the deck, they are made from marine-grade, corrosion-resistant materials designed to withstand stomping, saltwater spray, and constant UV exposure. You can find simple up/down switch pairs or models with protective hinged covers to prevent accidental activation from a stray foot or dropped gear.
This simple, effective control system is a favourite among boaters who value practicality and efficiency. However, while foot switches offer great convenience at the bow, many skippers prefer integrated control right at the helm. That’s why we also offer:
For a clean, professional-looking helm and centralised command, a dedicated switch panel is the ultimate solution. These panels group your winch controls into a single, easy-to-use unit, often including features that give you greater control and system protection.
You’ll find panels with guarded rocker switches to prevent accidental use, as well as integrated LED indicator lights that show you when the winch is operating. Some models also come with a built-in circuit breaker, providing an essential layer of safety for your boat’s electrical system.
A quality anchor winch switch panel not only looks great mounted on your dash but also organises your controls logically, putting total command of your anchor right at your fingertips when you’re at the wheel. Of course, control doesn't have to be limited to a fixed location.
Sometimes you need control from different spots on your boat. Compact rocker switches are ideal for mounting in tight spaces, either at the helm or a secondary station, giving you a reliable, low-profile control point. This is incredibly useful for solo boaters who need to be at the bow to watch the anchor chain but also want direct control.
It also allows you to keep a clear line of sight on the anchor and rode without being tethered to the dash. A modern anchor winch switch setup like this provides unmatched versatility, letting you drop and weigh anchor with precision, no matter where you need to be on the vessel.
For boaters looking to build a complete wireless system from scratch or source specific parts for an upgrade, we offer more than just the switches themselves. Our selection includes the core components needed to get your remote anchor winch system fully operational.
Your anchoring system is only as reliable as its weakest link. By choosing a high-quality anchor winch switch from our collection, you’re investing in dependable performance that won’t let you down. We’ve sourced durable, marine-ready switches to suit every type of boat and boater in Australia.
