Hi all, Just read an article in the September/October Practical
describing a sailor who had his 1978 Barient winches rechromed by a shop. The
drums were re-etched and rechromed and still his lines would slip. He tried a
few things and settled on adding a 1 inch wide stip of 3M safety-walk non-skid
tape to the uppermost part of the drum, and it works well. In light winds, he
can ease the sheet and it slides across the bare chrome part of the drum. The
tape is only needed in higher winds when he has several more wraps around the
winch. Just wanted to share. Chuck Thanks to all of the subscribers
