I have a 1990 Sea Ray SD 350.
Has a Good Windlass.
I have been working with it but not sure things are working right.
I believe it is a CFD 500 rope windlass.
I turn on power.... all good.
I hit unlock switch.... no problem but it just hangs still.
I hit down on toggle and the motor turns... drops rope a bit.... motor turns but anchor does not go down unless you hand feed the line.
When anchhor hits bottom I can back up and due to weight it will pull out line.
Move toggle to lock and nothing locks so I have to ties on cleat of windlass.
When I retrieve, it is so slow.....
I had rope out to remove some kinks earlier and rop seems ok.
Any help or suggestions are welcome.
