Default Cordless drill as Electric Winch Handle

When I deteriorate to the point I need an electric winch to hoist sails or even an electric reel for fishing, I will hang up my lines and purchase a set of golf clubs although I have no idea what they're for...

I just read a couple posts on using a cordless (24v) electric drill as an
electric winch handle...Has anybody done this? were you satisfied with the
performance.

The off the shelf electric winch handle is over $2000 so this could be a
great alternative for those with big mainsails!
