I've got these winches on my davits. They've done about a season. One of them has become really stiff and screeches when you wind up. On the way down its pretty rough too.

Is it a simple case of lubrication needed. If so with what?

Or is it more likely that the cable has got all twisted inside and I'm goin to have to open it up? (which looks from my point of view as pretty major surgery)
