Not sure if it is help, but..
There is a reasonable report on SBO from a guy who sailed his boat (I think it
was a Catalina 34) from San Francisco to Vancouver Island. If I recall, about
two years ago. It took him more than a month. He hopped along the coast,

I have seen numerous ideas for electrifying the winches. Some more reasonable

I can imagine that some of them might be helpful in real life. Others? I am

A friend spent a year sailing his 35ft Cat around the islands with his wife
and sometimes another friend. He didn't use the electric drill all the time,
but did when the job got more difficult. He was in his late sixties/early
seventies.
I believe he had the Milwaukee angle drill.
