Hi everyone... Any idea where I might be able to find (I think it's the retaining cap) for my Maxwell 21? looked on eBay... not sure where else to look. Thanks! Jon
Hi Jon, Looks to me from your picture like you're missing the cap, not the retaining cap.
Try contacting these guys:
Autralian, Yacht Winches Co.
winches@attglobal.net
Or drop an email to Allen Hutton, their president at this address:
allen@thehuttons.com.au
They were very helpful when I needed jaws for my ST24s. So far as I know they are the only ones in the world that still have Maxwell winches parts. Good luck Jon, Claude
Edit 1 Found this diagram for you. Kind of fuzzy but if you enlarge it you should see part numbers and names for the various parts.
Edit 2 Are you sure the winche is a 21 ? On my 34 they are Maxwell 20s on the cabin top !
