What is MOS/MORS?
Manual Operating System (MOS): handle fits directly into gypsy by removing the capstan or clutch top.
Manual Override system (MORS): Handle Fits into windlass top and overrides the transmission and ratchet drive system.
We offer two manual operation alternatives. The Manual Override System (MORS) is a premium option on most models, and provides manual retrieval of the rope and chain or chain only rode by simply applying a standard sheet winch handle to the top of the windlass. The Manual Operating System (MOS) features a gypsy attachment that fits into the top of the gypsy once the capstan or clutch top has been removed.
MOS Adaptor comes standard on 8 and 10mm Gypsies (VR/C 850-2200).
MORS (Ratchet Cone) is an optional upgrade for VR/C 2500-4000
