Retro-fit to Self tailing winches Watski Wincher Self-Tailers

Molded rubber Wincher slips over the top flange of any nontailing
winch, giving you the benefits of a self-tailing winch for a lot less
money

Special ribs on the underside grip the top turn, allowing the tail to
peel away after drum rotation

When winched home, the tail can be tucked into the ribbed groove
between top and bottom flanges, keeping friction secure on the drum

They have been around a long time and don't work worth a damn, at
least not on my boat back in the 70s. Sometimes there's really just
nothing like the real thing, and bargain short cuts seldom work very
well on boats in spite of all the slick claims made for them.

Mic, you do people no favor by publicly advocating these half assed
solutions that you have probably not tried yourself.
