When I deteriorate to the point I need an electric winch to hoist sails or even an electric reel for fishing, I will hang up my lines and purchase a set of golf clubs although I have no idea what they're for...

I just read a couple posts on using a cordless (24v) electric drill as an
electric winch handle...Has anybody done this? were you satisfied with the
performance.

The off the shelf electric winch handle is over $2000 so this could be a
great alternative for those with big mainsails!

Damn... That's a stellar idea... I was getting tired of that old dreary ..45 ACP.... Some of them took 3-4 rounds to quit floundering... That gets expensive... eh?

Here is a thread with more info

a company that has a $40 winch bit to fit a 1/2" drill. They suggest a 18 v
drill with 450 in./lbs torque
