A hydraulic single gypsy anchor windlass is a piece of equipment commonly found on ships and boats, particularly larger vessels. It's used for raising and lowering the anchor. It is powered by a hydraulic system, which uses fluid pressure to generate motion. The hydraulic system is known for its strength and reliability, making it ideal for onerous tasks like handling large and heavy anchors on ships. The hydraulic controls allow for precise manipulation of the anchor’s length and its direction, enabling the crew to deploy or retrieve it safely and efficiently. Different from double gypsy anchor windlass, there's only one chain wheel for this windlass, which means it's designed to handle one single anchor chain. Gypsy can vary in size and design based on the type and size of the chain it is meant to handle.

A hydraulic single gypsy anchor windlass is of vital importance for maritime vessels, providing indispensable power and control needed to manage anchors effectively, which is crucial for both navigation and safety at sea.
