Practical Sailor mag just did a writeup and test on the smaller
windlasses. The October issue will have tests on the mid-range
windlasses.

Does it say "This windlass sucks! Don't buy this awful product!", or does
it say what boat magazines always say that every advertiser's, or potential
advertiser's products are just wonderful and you can't live without them?

It mainly takes the manufactuers' claims, like max pull, speed, etc, and
compares them to actual tests that they did. It helps to keep the
manufactures honest. What the tests can't tell you is how long will the
windlass last - probably the most important question.
