Does anyone either know the make of this windlass or know how to disassemble it from the boat? I have done all I can imagine to get the drum off except try a drum puller. I’m hoping someone knows the unit and knows the trick. There are two holes in the side of the drum that have steel pins in them. I thought they might be cotter pins of some design that go through the shaft, but they don’t want to come out. Before pounding on them too hard or drilling them out I thought I’d ask.
I removed the rusty cap off the top side of the unit but there is no nut or bolt underneath. It appears to be the smooth top of the shaft instead.
Thanks, Bill
