jviss said: You can, indeed, buy a cordless, electric winch handle, for about $750. But this is hardly a reasonable substitute for an electric winch, in my opinion. You must still hold the thing against the force it's applying, and as far as reliability goes, I wouldn't want to depend on it.
Sep 6, 2010. #2. I set mine up a few years ago when I had a free dock on the wrong side of a fixed bridge. I could safely step it from the bow while Kelli would navigate down the canal to get us to open water. The winch I chose was a $49 harbor Freight 12v atv winch w/wired remote. It has a built in brake to safely stop at any point which is a ...

7. Catalina C22 Lake Ouachita, Arkansas. Jan 7, 2020. #1. I just bought a 3500 lb electric winch with wireless remote with the idea of mounting it (preferably quick disconnect) to either my trailer or boat to aid in stepping the mast by myself.

4,049. Hunter 40.5 Warwick, RI. Aug 8, 2017. #2. I have a similar, but different, control box on my Lewmar OP2 electric winch that I installed in 1998. I believe that the control box has two functions. First it will switch high current to the motor- your control switch is not capable of that amount of current.
520. Hunter 42 Sydney. Aug 14, 2018. #1. On my passage 42 I have always lusted after an electric upgrade for my main cabin top winch. At a recent boat show I was quoted over $2000 for the upgrade kit - and that did not include installation. I got to thinking- when I look at the size of the factory receptacle for the motor and consider its job ...

Oct 5, 2015. 4. Hunter 356 Cobb Island, MD. Oct 12, 2015. #5. have been using the Milwaukee M28 on Java for the last 3 years. Works great for raising either sail or bringing them in. Roller main. Works so well it I can be taken up the mast two times before needing to re-charge.
Jul 25, 2018. #4. I bought the 28 Volt Milwaukee angle drill and a winch bit this past May, Pulls the main up with no effort thru the Lewmar coach top winch and takes me at 165 lbs up to the top of the mast again with no more effort on the users part than pulling the trigger on the drill. A much cheaper solution to the electric winch installation.
