Winch Penis ? Ep172

Winch, mast, birds and dancing We noticed the 23ST - 41 Meissner winch was slipping a bit. The forward deck light needed to be replaced and Steve was going to lift Karen up the main mast with a new bulb. As she started to ascend the mast, the Meissner 23ST - 41 winch started to slip and periodically get stuck. Well, you know what that meant. A new project, fixing the winch. After a lot of lubricating with Blaster, some light tapping and much coaxing, Steve was able to remove the winch from the mast. Upon careful examination, it was determined that one of the pins used to hold the gears in place was bent causing the movement of the gears to be erratic. Luckily we have three winches on the main mast, so back to the original plan of the day, changing the deck light. Using the port side winch, Steve was able with the aid of the WinchRite to quickly and easily lift Karen, sitting comfortably in a bosun's chair up the mast. The WinchRite is a cordless electric winch handle used to turn any winch into an electric winch and a bosun's chair is a short padded seat with an attachment for a halyard. Work finished for the time being, we were off to find wildlife. There were a few birds that were visible in the various wildlife parks we visited, but not as many animals as we hoped for. It was a very hot humid day, perhaps they were all resting comfortably in the shade somewhere. Many thanks and hugs to our subscribers. We love you all and love your comments.
