Default Re: Windlass Recommendations??

I second that for Good. Mine was excellent.

I would recommend cleatting off though. Takes the strain off the wildcat. Although many dont do that and use soley the windlass while under way and anchored.

We have one on our boat and I know several others that do as well. All have been reliable and trouble free.
