Questions about a windlass

[scook]

Take a hole saw and drill some holes in the bottom of the bucket and some around the sides at the bottom for good drainage and air circulation to dry the line.

Thanks for the info, been working on boat for the last week, think I will enjoy the V20 when I get her ready..

I added a lewmar v700 to my boat a few years back. I love it! only thing I would change would be to mount it further to the stern. I could use more free fall length

I added a old powerwinch windlass to my V20 that I found on craigslist for $100 but have not had the chance to try it yet. It gets a little in the way of the top sliding door and I had to angle it a bit to use with an existing anchor roller I had. It also came with a foot switch I installed. I have used an anchor ball in the past but hope this will be much simpler and easier.
