I have just bought a 19 ft yacht with 2 winches.A ratchet worked on one of them but now that has gone.When I took the cover off one there seemed to be pieces of a spring inside but this fell to pieces.Ther are no identifying marks on the winch.How can I get 2 new springs so that the ratchets work again.The bottom of the winch has been glassed in and it would be almost impossible to remove.Help.
 
most motor car spares factors have boxes of assorted springs available
