great question! I should have asked that one.
I don't have a windlass but I do have 600 ft of 1/2" and 20 ft of chain and room to spare. At least room for another 200 and still have some fall.

I appreciate that, helps out. I was going to order the 600 feet but was a bit leary. Thank you

I would have guessed 400'. That capacity is pretty decent.
