i'm sailing a 1985 e-38 and have been thinking about a windlass. i'm almost sure someone out there has done this before. My boat has the typical anchor locker with a fiberglass hatch cover. how do I install the windlass in this area so that I can still use the anchor locker to store the rode etc. i use a rode consisting of 30 ft of chain and 300 ft of 5/8 in nylon lline. I think I saw somewhere maybe it was on this site that someone had reinforced the locker cover area with a steel plate on which to bolt the windlass either in or on the anchor locker cover. Hope ther is help and advice out there. Spencer
