Anchor locker
As a matter of fact I did. It wasn't easy but I made it happen and after a lot of labor it is in and it works great. My S2 36 is cutter rigged so I didn't have much choice as to where I could mount it. The only place was right on top of the anchor locker door. Of course this required cutting the door in half and glassing in the after piece so that I could bolt the windlass in place. But it didn't stop there. The anchor locker wasn't deep enough so I had to glass in a forward bulkhead and cut the anchor locker floor out to allow the chain to fall. It is a lot of work but if you are interested I'll take pictures to show you what I did.
Hi, I also have an S2 36 and recently installed a windlass but I find the
chain gets fouled as the locker isn't deep enough so I am thinking of
doing what you did. I would be interested in pictures of your installation.
Do you have a hatch in the V berth to the anchor locker?
I am sailing on Lake Michigan now but intend to do some coastal and offshore cruising. What can you tell me about an S2 36 on the ocean.
Send me your email and I'll send you pictures of how I did it.
Thanks,
