If it’s your first time refitting or replacing a winch, this document was written to provide you with a bit more context for the job ahead.

In the event that you are lucky, it will simply be a like-for-like replacement – pop it all back together, everything is exactly as out was before ….. and go sailing!!

Quite possibly you might feel the need to adjust the transmitter to cope with the new winch being aboard. This was my case too. May I suggest that in addition to printing this guide, you also print the guide for “Installing a New Transmitter”
