What is a winch?
A winch (or capstan) allows sailors to increase force through a handle, reducing the physical effort needed to trim or ease a sail. Typically, winches are installed on the sailboat’s deck for easy access when controlling sails.
Types of winches
Manual winch: Requires physical effort using a winch handle to adjust the sails.
Electric winch: Powered by the boat’s alternator and battery. Available in 12v winch or 24v winch versions, with the 12v model being the most common on modern sailboats.
Hydraulic winch: Operates using hydraulic pressure from the boat’s steering pump.
