Andersen's Standard Electric 2 + 2 Winch is made of stainless steel and is self-tailing. This winch operates at two speeds manually and with a push of a button it transforms into a two-speed electric winch, which is ideal for single-handed sailing. It comes with installation instructions indicating how it can be installed in the same positon as your existing winch by removing it and drilling matching holes for the winch and motor drive, and making electrical connections.
The 12-volt motor is fitted with thermal cut-outs in case of overheating and has an amperage sensor to disable power at a pre-set load. Equipped with Andersen's Power Rib drum and self-tailing device, this winch accommodates 15/32 in. (8mm) to 35/64 in. (14mm)-diameter lines. It has a 3 1/2 in. (89mm)-diameter drum with a 7 3/32 in. (180mm)-diameter drum base. The 11 11/32 in. (288mm)-long motor and power box sit in a recess 7 7/8 in. (200 mm) below the base.
