Had one on my Westsail, worked great. This one is set up with two handles which makes for quick retrievel of the chain using both arms alternately. That's quick for a
manual windlass that is. Simple ratchet pawl design with virtually nothing to screw up. Only caution is to have the handles laying forward on the
deck when you let chain run free. If they are aft the dog can become engaged and slam the handle forward. At least one skull fracture from this happening. Not a problem if handles are forward.
