Note: This job can be done with the mast on the boat, while it is in the water or you can lay the mast on two horses, winch up, and

hold it in place with clamps.

1. Before you install your new halyard winch, take a close look at how your current winch is installed. The winch pawls must

open down, so they should be to port.

2. Pull the halyards out of the winch to port from where they are locked in the center core of the spool noting that the jib halyard

is led aft of the top winch spacer and the main halyard is led forward of it. (See Image at Step 10)

3. Cut the wires and pull them up and out of the way. Secure them by taping them to the mast.

4. Remove the old winch rivets by driving the center pin through into the mast and drilling out the rivet shanks with a 3/16" bit.

5. Remove the old winch

6. Hold the new winch in place, in line with the old rivet holes, with the pawls to port.

7. Insert one rivet and drive the center pin flush.

8. Repeat step 7 on the opposite side, diagonally across

Note: Drive the center pin flush only. Two or three blows with the hammer will do it. A drift pin or small Phillips

screwdriver is handy in lining up the holes.

9. Repeat step 7 until all the rivets are driven home and the winch is in place

10. Install the halyards making sure to separate the jib and main halyards with the upper, forward winch spacer.
