Windlass


I just bought a 1992 Santiago 638 this past fall and I'm looking at a few things that need upgrading.

1. Windlass - I was thinking about the Maxwell RC8-8.
Anyone use the Maxwell? The boat is all wrapped and I don't have access to the bow to measure anything. Anyone know if this will fit the Santego? Thoughts on the quality. Right now the boat has a "Good" all rope windlass but it won't accommodate any chain so I was thinking I would swap them out.

2. Looking at adding Radar and the Simard GO9 XSE seems to offer a ton of value for an 3 in 1 solution. I would potentially fish off this boat a couple times per year. Most likely in Long Island Sound. In addition, I can see a few trips to Block Island. The boat has a GO7 right now.

Although this will be my third boat - it's my first yacht per se and just trying to get a few things out of the way for the winter.

Thanks
