Recommended Power Drill Size

• For a smaller boat below 30ft it is normally enough with 60nm and with a Brushless motor.
• Above 30ft we recommend 90nm and higher. Always with a brushless motor as it handles overheating and power consumption a lot better.
• Our standard recommendation is Dewalt 92 nm, Brushless.

PS Please note the recommendation are a guide line because all boats are different when it comes to resistance hoisting sails.
