carathoustra 0 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Hi, I have a 28ft yacht and we need to repair 3 winches. Do you know where we can find second hand spear parts ? We try on trade me but I could not really find something affordable. Our winches are quite old and I am sure there are other winches that nobody is using that we can use or restore. Do you know somewhere and someone who can put us in the right direction ? Thanks a lot Carole Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madyottie 82 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Try Stanley Marine in whangarei. They do a lot of second hand stuff and obscure spare parts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
El Toro 97 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 See if you can track down Jamie Logan from Custom Marine. Ive used him and his lad Josh to service and repair (including parts) my winches for years... do a great job Quote Link to post Share on other sites
