I agree about the matte only. Nytex which encompasses both mat and cloth is far stronger. You will need the strength.
Which ever windlass you use, the chain wildcat needs to be ABOVE the chain feed or the chain WILL tend to pop out of the pockets which aside from being disconcerting, may be dangerous.
If you do mount the windlass so the wildcat is below the chain feed you likely will have to use another wheel to push it down to ensure it stays in the pockets.
Without enough chain/wildcat engagement it WILL pop free.
