Winch Handle Holder

THOMASRHEUBLE · #1 (**permalink**) 10-09-2006

Hello All:

I'm trying to locate a Winch Handle Holder made of a marine board type material or a hard sturdy pvc. I've seen them before, and have been searching the web but cannot locate one.

Thanks Thomas

Ronstan also makes a PVC winch handle holder.

You can buy it right here at Sailnet. Gee, what a great way to say thank you for all the work they do to maintain this site.

"hard sturdy " The winch holders, including that Wichard, are usually made of SOFT pvc on purpose. Sooner or later someone will get thrown or pushed into anything in the cockpit, and it does less damage which you get a soft PVC object pressed into you. (To both you and it.)

(Has anyone ever seen a rigid one? Not home built?)

I'd go with TexLex's suggestion!

Well, Tex, if it ain't got a price and a catalog number, it don't belong in the catalog.
