[world-cruising] Windlass repair

    Good morning all,

    I have a Simpson-Lawrence Hyspeed 510 manual windlass in need of a
    rebuild. It's worked fine for me but now seems to be locked up with
    the mainshaft rotating back and forth with the movement of the ratchet
    arm. The case has been split so I can see everything and it appears
    that the center section with the twin sprockets are locked. This
    model windlass was discontinued by Simpson-Lawrence making parts and
    operating/rebuilding instructions hard to find. I really don't want
    to buy a new one, has anyone had this problem repairing it
    succesfully? Does anyone know a supplier in the states with parts
    still in stock?

    Thanks in advance,
    Dave K
