Windlass

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I suspect I will need to service the windlass soon as I think there is a problem with the motor. I have a few checks to do on the cableing etc before I do. However, I am not sure if there will be enough clearance in the locker to remove the cover and I think I may need to remove the windlass for access. In preparation I had a look underneath the windlass for the 4 mounting studs. I can only see the rear two and the forward two apear to be behind the forward bulkhead!Has anyone removed the windlass and if so how did you access for forward two studs?
 I’m going to need to cut holes??

	Hi Mike: I have EXACTLY this problem. How did you end up solving this? I can indeed only see the two rear studs. How on earth do you get to the front ones? Harold SV Ventus 415/314 Boston
