W
INCHES
Just
Breeze
has
4
winches,
3
electric,
1
manual.
The
two
large
(electric)
winches
near
the
helms
are
for
sheeting
the
main
and
genoa.
The
port
cabin
top
has
an
electric
winch
for
halyards
only.
Furling
should
be
handled
by
manual
operation
of
the
handle
located
in
the
on
the
starboard
side
of
the
cockpit
table.
This
is
because
furling
gear
can
be
overwhelmed
by
the
power
of
the
motorized
winches
which
can
result
in
damage
to
sails,
lines,
and
furling
systems.
The
electric
winches
are
supplied
by
12V
DC.
A
breaker
protects
the
electrical
circuit.
An
operation
relay
is
fitted
to
the
electrical
circuit.
A
load
controller
is
fitted
to
the
electrical
circuit:
This
system
protects
the
winches
against
overload
by
temporarily
interrupting
the
electrical
supply.
There
two
speeds
(strengths)
1
=
FAST
2
=
SLOW
Inserting
a
winch
handle
into
an
unloaded
winch
automatically
disconnects
the
motor
transmission
and
allows
it
to
be
used
manually.
NOTE:
Heavy
use
is
made
of
the
batteries
when
operating
the
electrical
winches.
Make
sure
the
battery
bank
is
systematically
recharged
after
a
day's
sailing.
