I have the Tiara manual and specs for my 1996 31 Open, but the windlass documents do not have the model number nor can I find it on the windlass. The chain keeps jamming as it comes off the chain wheel before it dumps into the pipe, and I suspect a might need a new chain wheel (and new chain) but I can't figure out the specs for either. The windlass runs very well. Have emailed Maxwell with the serial number from the windlass but haven't heard anything back.
Any helpful suggestions?

Update: Received an email from Maxwell rep on the West Coast later on the 27th requesting some more info/photos of windlass which I sent last night. Hope to hear from him shortly. I'll update when I do.
Update: Maxwell came through for me, and just wanted to give Will Vrooman, their rep a thumbs up. He emailed me today, after looking at the pictures I sent him Sunday that it was a Model VWC 800, uses 5/16 G4 high test chain, and sent me a PDF of the parts blowup and the manual. What a great response!
