Hi all, I have an Ideal windlass with a rope only capstan. I would like to replace it with a rope/chain one. My question is since the motor (2 wire) only rotates in one direction can I add a dual direction solenoid and achieve power up and down operation? Thanks.

I would like to convert the water fill on the transom to an outlet or shower control. My boat is a 1971 43DC, does anyone know where the check valve would be located. There is also another inlet on the starboard next to the shore power connection. Rob71

I am planning on doing day charters with my 43DC. I have just started getting captians license and insurance in place. I plan to take people to picknick,swim,cruise and/or visit the barrier islands around my area. What advice do some of you experienced captians have for me? Rob71
