I'm interested, and specifically curious about the winch adaptor bit. Could you provide more info, please?

I have just finished the conversionI am in the process of converting Lewmar Wavegrip 55 winches to electric. DIY , own design.
is the OP referring to an anchor windlass or a sheet winch?
I beat you to it by two years!You beat me to it ... I was about to pop that question.
I have never heard of hand held motor drive for a windlass !! apart from a metal rod

Custom extended winch handles perhaps 14 I inches instead of 10 inches.....almost 2x powerI got over the surgery quickly enough and was sailing solo by July. Just using sensible techniques and ordinary winches handles and loads of silicone on everything that could lead to friction.
Would still like to see a diy design for conversion.
