Meet the Harken 46.2 Self-Tailing Radial Winch 2 Speed—built for precise, dependable sail handling whether you’re racing the breeze or cruising the coast. The radial drum design and proactive grip system are crafted to deliver confident control when you need it most.
The gripping surface on the radial winch drum is purpose-built for each size and drum material and features diagonal ribs instead of textured abrasives. This design delivers robust grip while dramatically reducing line wear, helping your lines last longer and perform more consistently under load.
Why this winch stands out
- Self-tailing operation enables a single crew member to trim, hoist, or secure sails without a second hand—making single-handed or short-handed sailing more manageable.
- Two-speed versatility adapts to different sail tasks—from heavy furling to fast, effortless winching. Gear ratio 1st speed: 2.30:1; 2nd speed: 9.17:1 (with corresponding power ratios 1: 11.70 and 2: 46.50).
- Radial design introduces a precision-grip surface that minimizes line abrasion and improves handling consistency under load—especially beneficial for high-load halyards and sheets.
- Compact, robust construction with an aluminum body for corrosion resistance and durable performance on saltwater voyages.
