Default Windlass Chain/rope

Good morning I was wondering if somebody was able to help me identify if this is a Lewmar Concept 1, 2 or 3? I previous owner had to cut his anchor loose and I dont know what size of windlass chain/rope I need to get? Also what is a common length of chain and what length of rope. I am getting ZERO help from Lewmar to this point. Thanks Mike

BTY I noticed your windless is missing the chain hole cover, this will allow rain to enter the anchor locker. Not sure if you can get a replacement.

I have it pulled off because I pulled the chain the guy had in there temporarily that wasnt the right chain for the windlass. I ordered a New Rode today so will put back together when in arrives.

I have a similar windlass Concept 1 that previous owner broke off the spring loaded finger and the chain stripper. Part numbers in owners manual showed parts no longer available, I contacted Lewmar and they were a great help with giving me the new part numbers and I was able to repair the windlass

You should be able to tell the windlass and gypsy model and size by what is stamped on the Gypsy:

You usually need to remove the gypsy to see the code.

,Look on your gypsy and you will see a number such as 003 then go to Lewmars web site and look at chart to see what chain size you need. Example I had a 002 and called for 5/16 chain, I had it changed then my chain kept jumping off ,looked at new gypsy and it was a 003 ,which called for 3/8 chain, changed that and it works great, good luck, I looked at you picture and saw it's 000
