We've been using our Winchrite for 2 years now. Use it to haul up the main,
winch up the
outboard end of the
RIB, furl the headsail & the Admiral uses it to winch me up the
mast.
Have never run out of
battery & it recharges quickly. I like the fact that it is reasonably
water proof, has plenty of
power & we have the holder mounted on the bulkhead near the
halyard winch so it is always handy but securely stored.
Wouldn't be without it now. Saves so much energy.
