One of the problems we have had in using our boat, especially as the day or the cruise wore on, was furling or unfurling the main sail. Often this became a factor of how tired and sore our arms were rather than the freshening of the wind. We also routed the spinnaker halyard to this winch as well. This project along with the conversion of the primary winches to electric, two years ago, will alow us to enjoy sailing more as we sail into our sixties this year.
