Default Main halyard winch, 1sp. or 2sp?

Speaking of dropping things over the side..

Happened to me yesterday.

I had spent 2 days in my machine/weld shop making a longer 'jaw' afair for
my clew outhaul car.. Lotta work but what a fine job I did.. I can say that
now (that it is on the bottom in 30 ft of water.

If only I had make it out of something that would float or was magnetic. No
hope of recovering it since I was swinging on a mooring bouy and the swing
radius creates a very large search area. If I had had my gps turned on, I
could have done a MOB and go down with some dive gear.

I won't repeat my general abusive language here..
