Does this come with an anchor roller (piece that bolts to the boat right in front of the windlass and holds the anchor)? If not, what one works best?

No it does not the one that works best for my boat is a self launching set up with a delta anchor

does anyone know the retrieval speed?

Hi Jay, The Profish 700 retrieval speed is 105' per min. Let us know if you have any other questions.

is the bolt pattern and wiring the same on the 700 and 900?

Same on the 700 as it is on the 1000

I have a 24' hard top thompson fisherman, is yhe pro fish 700 ok to use, or would you recomend the 1000? Ive not been sble to find any specs

I will be using this on a 25 ft homemade tugboat. I designs the fore deck & anchor rode locker for this windlass. I felt the 1000 with 5/16 chain & 5/8 line was overkill for my boat. I have been pulling the 1/4 chain & 1/2 in. line by hand for 12 years but as I am getting older I want the windlass so I can retrieve the anchor from the pilot house. I believe in using the largest anchor gear you can handel but the rig I have has served me well. Have ridden out 70 mph winds & now have a Brait braided line that can pick up the entire boat. So I feel I am OK.
