[C320-list] Maxwell 500 Conversion

[MICHAEL COLE]

I had this conversion done a year ago by the boatyard after obtaining the kit from New Zealand also without any instructions.  Be careful that the chain stripper  ( a little  U shaped piece of metal)  is screwed on the end plate below the chain gypsy otherwise  the chain will not release when it goes round to the 6 o'clock position.  I also installed a high tensile stainless steel chain  ( quarter inch)  as the unit does not take the 5/8 inch chain I was previously using.
