Where to buy spare parts for Andersen winches?

[jdc]

Is anyone able to recommend a good source of spares for Andersen winches? I usually buy from bluemarinestore in Spain. I've not found a UK based chandler who stocks parts for the larger sizes, such as the 58ST, but hopefully others will know of one.

Forced4chandlery seem to stock spares kit.

I thought, but my memory maybe (again) at fault, Andersen were now owned by Ronstan. Find your nearest Ronstan dealer - and work from there.

Thank you / dank-u wel for these suggestions.

Buying new winches or service kits seems easy while stockists of some of the innards are harder to find, but Force4 seem to have more than they put in their catalog so I'm trying them first. I find it's the plastic discs of the self-trailers which eventually shatter due to UV exposure, yet these aren't in the service kits afaik.

IMP sold me one of those. As the UK importer they are will be more knowledgeable than a chandlery like Force 4.

As an aside, Halcyon 27s were built in Royston - we visited while my Dad's was being built!

OceanChandlery also sell them and have supplied me in the past.
