Listers,
Many good ideas and thanks to all for your input. I liked Rick Brass's idea of adding provision for the asymmetrical tack line to the custom roller mounting plate. Paul E's use of the 4WD controller is cool and his blog is even cooler. Tom's photos show a really neat install and it looks like the Quick windlass can take both rope and chain. This can help keep the weight down in the bow while maximizing rode length. I'm leaning toward a powered windlass but appreciate Josh's thoughts on a manual unit and also his idea for a selectable fresh/salt water wash-down pump. Andrew Burton's photos give me a clear picture of the modifications/adaptations needed to the existing bow area. I've collected all these and put it in OneDrive folder: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhpB-lul9d5YgmLzIeljVDt4Uhjv Thanks again, Ron
