So, it’s winter and I’m getting back to refitting (restoration is probably a better word now after letting her go so long) Ronin and am working on shed/inside type jobs. I bought a Lewmar Pro-Series 1000 horizontal windlass. Right now I’ve taken a bunch of measurements and I am doing some rough drawings for mounting it inside the anchor locker, on a shelf bonded to the bulkhead and just under the anchor locker cover. Right off the bat it seems doable. Chain angle from the bow-roller is within tolerances; the chain/rode runs true when the windlass is offset to starboard and there is just enough chain-fall (~21”) to meet the manufacturer’s requirements.
So, has anyone with a same or similar sized C&C done something like this? Thoughts, pictures, links or just general “Be afraid!” comments?
