ABSTRACT:
A dual sheet winch apparatus is disclosed to manipulate a Genoa type of foresail on a model sailboat. Each line is attached to the clew of the Genoa at a first end, one line being reeled in or out at its second end by a port winch, the other being reeled in or out at its second end by a starboard winch for the control of the Genoa foresail for model sailboat maneuvering purposes. The separate winches are manipulated by a remotely controlled geared electric motor.
