do you honestly think that coil is going to 'jump' over the winch
handle?

Scotty

Scooter, I see nothing wrong with leaving the handle in the winch in
those conditions, and looping over the winch is common practice.

Some of the 'sailors' here take themselves a little too seriously.


In "those" conditions it's probably not a problem. In conditions we
see here, it could easily be a problem. I tend to plan for worst case
scenarios, since the conditions here change quickly.



Yep, we put life jackets and harnesses on and rig the boat for heavy
conditions when necessary.
When we're out for a plod around in light conditions on flat water, we
rig for that.

I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you.
