    If you want to use a wireless remote you can buy one from Ramsey winch
    for $49.00. I replaced the Warn winch on my dinghy davit this fall and
    ordered the wireless remote. You can order kits for Warn and other
    winches as well. It came with solenoids etc... I installed it in a
    couple hours, it works great. The remote is like the keyless entry for
    you car so you can carry it in your pocket.

    Best regards,

    Subject: T&T: Davit Hoist Remote Control

    I would like to add a handheld remote control to the winch/hoist on my
    dinghy davit.
    The current winch is a 12 volt Warn based product with a rotating
    contactor switch
    on the end of the motor where the two positive and negative leads come
    in.
    Twisting this switch one way or the other controls whether the winch
    goes up or down.
     
    I gather that adding a remote would involve one or more solenoids which
    would be
     mounted remotely from the winch itself and that a wired remote would
    then control the
    solenoids. As such, I have been looking at anchor winch control
    products that I could adapt.
     
    Does anyone have any specific suggestions?
     
    Thank you.
