MadMax,
Yeah I finally finished the windlass! It works great. Anchoring is one of the biggest headaches in boating and now it's only a switch away. I have to redo my line to chain splice though. It worked good at first but now its getting loose starting to fray, and hanging in the gypsy at times. I need some practice at a tapered back splice.
