Sheet travel on a J Boat

Postby Skip Hall » Wed Feb 02, 2005 7:32 am

Good Day Everyone,

Can anyone please tell me what the sheet travel is for a J Boat, an Enterprise. I'm in the process of refitting this beauty and Rob at RMG ask me this and I don't know.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Fair Winds Everyone!!

Are you familiar with this site?

http://www.deltamyc.com/Elecronics.htm

Rick West's Shamrock - "The winch is a RMG 380 geared for 11 turns and using a 32mm SDS or the 26mm single wide drum. (Stock both as they are 4USD when ordering the winch.)"

I would imagine yours is similar.

Thank You for this information. Rob at RMG is now making a new drum that will take the place of the step down spiral ones. Check out his site, he has it listed and Rob emailed me about this drum, he can make it for the 380HD 9.6 Turn Winch. This is what Rob recommends. I'm open to any suggestions.


Regards,
Ray

Since the geometery may vary... I can't say that it is correct... but the sheet travel on my Enterprise is 26"

Sorry guys, I'm shutting this discussion down. Need to keep the space for EC12s
