Post Windlass problem on 2000 396 aft cabin


Yesterday, we took the 2000 396 aft cabin out for a day on the water. When we anchored, the windlass operated as usual while deploying the anchor. When it was time to leave, the windlass was frozen and would not retrieve the anchor. I tried to use the manual handle but the windlass would not budge. We had to pull up the anchor by hand.

Any ideas as to the cause of the problem and suggested fixes?

Thanks.

I kept the other one figuring the other engine will need it anyways at some point. So put the starter in and it turns an awful sound almost like when you try and start a car that's already running. We took it out and inspected it and a li ...
