RE: Recommendations for a new windlass
Interestingly, I did the same thing with our Lofran winch, the outside looked ok, but the inside had extensive corrosion, the motor was a rebuild, not a Lofran, it was all pretty damp in there as the main seal had disintegrated.
We cleaned it all up, painted it and waited for it fail, 4 years on still going strong.However I do have the manual on standby as I know the day will come.
