1+ on the Milwaukee right angle drill.


A local rigger who is up and down many masts many times has one and his 
assistant drives him skyward easily with it.


Not cheap but definitely capable of many trips up the mast but much much 
cheaper than an electric winch and it is easily useable on any winch on board.

I don't know how much the Winchrite handles cost, but electric winches will
probably be a couple of grand.

A friend with a Tartan 37 recently bought a Milwaukee 28V 1/2" right angle
power drill and a hex driver to fit his winches; and he loves it. Cost
something under $400 on Amazon.

I've used it to hoist someone up my mast to replace some lights, and it is
slick.

Jerry,

Have you considered a Winchrite powered handle?  I have used one to raise
and then furl the main on a Beneteau 47 which had a Leisure Furl Coastal
Plus furling boom.  It worked fine and I was told it had enough capacity to
do this again without recharging.

Has anyone converted an ST Barient winch to electric power. Any ideas on
whether it can be done beneath winch?  I would like to motorize my halyard
winch.   New electric winches are astronomically priced.  Jerry J
