Powerwinch Model 612

[WTP07]

Anyone else have this windlass on their "experienced" boat?

I crawled out the hatch today to have a look at mine...

It looks like it is rope only, no chain... So I only get chain from the windlass to the anchor...maybe 5 ft or so....?

If anyone else has this unit, can you maybe give me some specs on rope size/type to use? I called Powerwinch this afternoon, and it's so old they have no documentation on it, no parts, nuttin'.

Thanks,

Randy.

I am sure you have resolved your issue by now, but I have the same Windlass on my 86 Sun Runner 310SB. I have completely rebuilt it as well. Yes, it is only Anchor Line. My chain is about 5 feet. Since it is only line, I would also like to replace mine. Ideally, 15 foot of chain would help.

Old post, but what did you do for a rebuild? Mine works but is very slow. Thanks
