[Rhodes22-list] Converting Electric Winch Motor Lift to a Manual System

[Mary Lou Troy]

Here are two photos of the lift on Fretless when we had her. One is from 
the top which gives a decent view of the setup and the other from the 
ground looking at the stern quarter.

Hope these are helpful.

I think I’ve taken it about as far as I can, without getting too crazy, and I think I have a way to estimate pull force without buying special equipment.  Hopefully, I’ll have an update tomorrow.
