Installing an Electric Windlass (SVGaruda Ep13)

In this episode we upgrade a bit by installing an electric windlass - removing our old manual windlass first and re-fiberglassing the deck to address a leak. The leak was likely more annoying than problematic, because every time it rains heavily, water makes it way through the deck (yikes!… not good… we don’t need a wet deck core because it will eventually rot and lose it’s structural integrity), down the new anchor locker door, and end up dripping on our feet in the V-berth. Enough is enough… time to put an end to this leak. …and as long as we’re going to be removing the windlass to do so, why to get a new, powered windlass?!?! (At least that’s the logic I used to convince Heather that this project would be worthwhile.) Of course, removing the old manual windlass and replacing it with a new powered one is only the beginning of the project. We also have to install new wiring runs to power everything… and take a quick detour to make a new panel in the cockpit to fit a secondary switch along with the autopilot controller. Like all boat projects, it’s a little bigger project once we begin… We upload as regularly as we can... but only if we genuinely have something to post.
