windlass/capstan on Hoyt Freedom 32

Posted by rnld_brr (rnld_brr@…>)

I’d appreciate hearing from anyone with recommendations for what size
model and make of windlass to fit onto a Hot Freedom 32 and any
thoughts and the installation would be most helpful. I am thinking a
chain/rope gypsy.

Ron,

I had a windlass installed on my F-32 a while back. There are photos
and details of the installation at:

the windlass I purchased was equipped for only chain but has the
option for both chain and rode. It’s been a wonderful addition to the
boat and I love the feature of being able to launch and retrieve the
anchor from the cockpit.

Good luck,
Ed Doran

Ron,

I have a windlass with all the specs on board. If you have not found
any support on this let me know.
