Windlass Question

Post by Tuck »

me again. :shock:

quick windlass question for this 36' tri cabin...

what size/type of windlass would i need for this size boat?

apparently, it had one previously, but was removed a while back. i'm getting lazy in my old age, and would like to have a windlass, but have no clue as to the size/type that i would need for this boat.

input?

You may find them costly but they hold up very well . The bad thing about the Good 500 is it is rope only it will not take in chain . I add chain when I ancour over night


you can find cheap windlass's
