[C320-list] Electric Winch

[sailorlew at aol.com]

Be aware that this winch will not be able to hoist you up the mast. My friend borrowed one from someone & we tried this. It would not lift him at all. Better to buy a Milwaukee right angle drill & winch bit which will be cheaper, & from what I have read is able to hoist someone up the mast with no trouble.

 Just a question...has anyone bought one of those Battery Powered electric
 winching  units?

 The one that you put on, press go and it does the winching for you?



 Any links where I can find them?



 If so, does it have enough torque to get a sail on tight in strong winds..
