Barlow 32 winches
Hi, First time user here. I have inherited two Barlow 32 winches on my John Pugh 48 Ketch and see they turn both clockwise and anticlockwise. They don't seem to lock. Is this normal or are they faulty?

Not normal! Sounds like stuck pawls... those dudes are due for a clean and lube day, asap.

What Jim said! And likely you can find manuals & schematics for them either at www.L-36.com or www.CnCphotoalbum.com
