Hi

I have made a boat winches KNOL - and would like suggestions on how to
improve it.

I would like more links to articles about how to choose the right
winch - sort some best for the money, best winch, and right size for
the purpose articles.

Hope you have some suggestions.

It is possible to configure most large winches to work either
clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Is that a one time deal - or can you do this during saling ?

It involves disassembling the winch and reversing pawls. I would avoid
doing it underway.
