Nothing like your first electric winch to make what you already love to do even better. An electric winch makes life easier, enabling any crew regardless of strength, size, or physical condition to perform the tasks required. They help with high-load jobs (such as hoisting the mainsail when sailing short-handed) by allowing the user to look up at the main while hoisting to make sure there are no snags or hold-ups. That's why Harken offers these easy conversion kits, which will convert manual Radial winches to electric. If you own manual Radial Harken winches, they were likely designed from day one to be electrified when the time is right.
For more information about what you’ll need for this conversion or installation – check out this great article or watch the video by Harken.
Please note - vertical conversion kits are available by special order - please contact our Customer Service department.
