The eWincher is a breakthrough product, but is this expensive piece of kit something you need? John tests it thoroughly on a 56-foot sailboat and then takes a deep dive into its capabilities.
In Part 1 I shared our experience with eWincher on Morgan’s Cloud over this summer. In this follow up article I’m going to compare eWincher to electric winches as well as three competing products.
In this third and final part, I’m going to share what I learned from grilling Chrysadev, the company that developed and makes eWincher, about reliability and service. And then I will wrap up with a summary that will help you decide if eWincher is right for you.
Several reasons to consider buying an eWincher, even if the loads are comparatively low, particularly if the halyards on your boat are run aft to winches under the dodger.
