This week we replace our faithful old manual anchor windlass with a new ELECTRIC one! From running cables, installing switching gear, and modifying the deck to accommodate our new Muir windlass, its all shown in detail here. We also share some of the factors we considered in decision making on how to install this fancy bit of kit!

All music tracks from Epidemic Sounds.
We use Joby tripods, iPhone 12, Olympus TG6 with the Ikelite ultra compact housing, GoPro, and DJI Air 2 S, and Mavic Air drones.
