I ordered a gx1 and all associated gear including anchor. Bow sprit. Rope, chain, sock, wiring loom etc from lonestar an hour ago. Was towards the lower end of your range and will be the best you can get.

Although that’s supply price. Not installed.

I was going to get one installed on my stacer outlaw 470, but was told would be at least 3000 due to having a plastic anchor bucket, Apparently needs bracing added to support the winch

Ouch was considering getting one in at tax time on a 4 .58 streak.
Boat cost 5k , dunno if it's worth forking out 3 k on a winch.
To many boats kayak, helicopter , catch a fish,catch a fish

Yes a solid spacer needs to be inserted between the plastic bucket and the bulkhead below the windscreen which is not a simple job
I did mine myself,was a p**** of a job but worth the effort

Does that include anchor and bow spirit?if not add another 550to600 bucks
My full kit for a Gx1 and mmx2 anchor cost me $2200 at a discounted price last year in June and was the cheapest I could find around Melbourne
