Title: Winch - Tony Abel
Post by: rnli12 on February 10, 2018, 06:25:58 am

Hi,

I have an Tony Abel yacht winch and wondered if anyone has one and can identify the leads, apart from the obvious receiver lead, i am  guessing one is for the battery pack what about the other two leads?

Any help appreciated.

My Marblehead has a Tony Able winch, it has not got the battery wires going into it but the extra two wires go to what looks like a socket but turned out to be a small potentiometer that adjust the neutral position. I would guess that should be on the end of your spare wires. Hope this helps.

Thanks Martin,

I don't suppose you have a photo of the deck layout, I am wondering where to but the elastic tension line.
