When Golden Hind Halyard Winches Go Bad
Posted: Mon May 12th, 2008, 1:13 pm
I had an unpleasant experience on my GH26 last week when one of the mast-mounted halyard winches tore out of the mast and whistled past my face as it disappeared skywards at a rate of knots.
Has anyone else had this problem? I am concerned about the other winch now, and want to get someone to professionally remount both. Does anyone know any reasonably priced repair people in the Hamble area?
