Good Morning everyone and Merry Christmas.I posted this question yesterday but not sure what happen to it, so here is my question and Idea:
I have a 2008 240 D like new very well taken care of on a trailer. I am going to cruse for the next 2 to 3 years starting in the Ca Delta then the San Juan islands then on to the Great Lakes.
I have a bow roller factory installed. I was thing about installing a windlass but after my research found the cost too high $3,000. to $4,000. Have to replace the Bow Roller,Move the Bow Navigation Light to the sides, fix the holes, bolt down the anchor locker cut a new access hole to get into the anchor locker buy new chain and rode ect..
So being an accomplished sailboat racer and former owner, I am thinking of installing a Winch on the anchor locker with support. I only want it to be able to break and lift the anchor out of the mud ect.
I would welcome any coments or thoughts and of course advice. Thanks Joe
