.:.if my windlass didn't have manual operation, i'd rather rig a line back

A good 2-speed manual windlass doesn't catch fire either, at least not the
way I use it.
You'd be better off going to a sheet windlass anyway. Even the best manual
operated powered windlass is vastly inferior to a good sheet winch.
