Do you like Minn Kota Deckhand 40 Electric Anchor Winch (40 Lbs. Capacity)extremely poor service when it breaks. no parts!!!!By R. DenleyThis is a great item until you have a need for parts. my elderly neighbor is 86 years old and still fishing after two bouts of cancer. I installed this on his boat to make life easier for him and it worked great for awhile . When it quit altogether was when we found out about the lousy parts replacement system from Minn-Kota. What was needed was a simple set of brushes for the Chinese made electrical 12 volt motor which is a very normal parts replacement item from most reputable companies that normally cost less then five bucks.Actually we only needed a single brush but they usually are better replaced in pairs Mot minkota.. you have to buy the whole motor and get this also the attached gear drive and transmission which has four screws attaching it to the the anchor lift. The transmission and gear drive take about four minutes to separate from the motor if they could be bought separately.. An authorized Minn-kota service center happily soaked my friend for one hundred and sixty eight bucks to change the motor and attached gear drive.That's a hard whack for some-one on social security. this is a sad commentary on a company that has built its' reputation on electrical motors!!buy anything but minn-kota4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. »» Read more about Minn Kota Deckhand 40 Electric Anchor Winch (40 Lbs.
