After the successful launch of our range of rigging
hydraulics, ambitions grew to expand the product
range within the philosophy of what Holmatro stands
for: Mastering Power. Our strategy, products and
services aim to help our clients succeed with the
powers they need. Winches perfectly fit within this
philosophy. For this purpose, Holmatro acquired
former Meissner winches, well known for their
innovative winch design, know-how and patents.

As a class supplier of hydraulics and winches to the
Extreme 40 catamarans, Holmatro receives feedback
from some of the world’s best sailors including
Olympians, professionals of the America’s Cup, Volvo
Ocean Race and Vendee Globe. These sailors have
a finely-tuned feel for the performance and quality
of yacht equipment. Our winches have seen intense
use on the Extreme 40 racing machines and have
mastered the incredible loads they generate. The
sailors of teams Alinghi, BMW Oracle, Ecover, Gitana
and Groupama have actively participated in the
development of our new range of winches.

“With the launch of Holmatro winches we had one
target in mind: to offer the best winch on the market”
says Holmatro Marine Equipment’s GM Gert Jan
Uijtdewilligen. “We are convinced we have succeeded.

and fun for generations to come.”
