Windlass troubles

Shoot I was haveing a great day on the sound lots if blues and smaller bass today went to pull up and my Pro-700 got 6inches from home position and it let loose,Anyone have any ideas?or similer issues with a lewmar product? I am glad it has a 5 year warranty and a shop in guilford but come on its only a year old.I think it must have a shear pin or something, The moter is running fine but she not spinning?

Well that stinks! Hopefully it's something simple and won't tie you up long.

Gary,

I'll have to check mine but I think there maybe a sheer pin on them. A good person to ask is ReelCrazy. He had to replace his pulley in the past.

There isnt a sheer pin in there. I would take the pully off. and look around. It will take about 10 mins. the pulley may be cracked.

That reminds me I need to order another one
