    Lofrans Windlass Foot Switch not working

    My up switch on the bow is not working. The down switch on the bow works and both up and down from the cockpit works. I took the switch apart today and there is nothing there that can go bad. I assume the Control Box or relay is the culprit. Any help would be appreciated. Jeff

    Washington DC cancels again!

    Argh! So here we sit with cabin fever although it is starting to warm up a little, but tonight I went in to check the status of the DC Boat show only to find it has been cancelled once again.

    The contrast in my ST60 is toast. I have seen them on Ebay going for 200-300 or more. My question is where can I just get it repaired or is it cheaper to just buy a replacement? Thanks Jeff
