I do. They’re fine. Probably not as easy to open under load as Garhauer, but still Ok for my uses.

I was about to pick up some Spinlock XAS Powerclutches at West Marine as they were rated best by Practical Sailor and I can get them at half price. Does anyone have that model and or know someone who has?

I love their stuff, too. I spent about a half hour chatting with them at the Annapolis Boat Show. They make lots of beautiful stuff that isn’t on their web site. But with all that new stainless, did you have to raise your waterline?

Sward,
I have Garhauer, and am VERY satisfied with them. They are rated very high, they’re easy on line (some definitely aren’t), and they are very reasonable. One of the neat things about Garhauer is that they will work with you to customize things, which few makers these days will do. They will custom-make clutch units up to six gang units, if you need them (I did).
They also release very easily under high load like any hi quality unit. I have changed almost all my blocks over to Garhauer, and also have one of their rigid vangs. That plus a radar pole, and OB lift arm. All their stuff is very high quality, I highly recommend them.

PS, This probably sounds like an ad, but I have no affiliation with them other than liking their stuff…Pswardfullsail <swardfullsail@…> wrote:
Can people recommend a good type of rope clutch for my Freedom 32. I saw that someone had recommended the Garhauer brand. Would others concur or are there others that are equally as good or better.Also I have done some research on dingy davits and it seems to me that the Kato brand would be the best for this boat. Does anyone have any comments to that?
