Wilcox-Crittenden Winches


Wilcox-Crittenden (Marinium) Winches
Easily identifiable by either the W/C logo or the word "Marinium" stamped into them, and as the only Aluminum Winches using a Flat, Slide-in Handle, Wilcox-Crittenden Winches have been out of production for over 30 years. Marinium was their trade name for a proprietary Aluminum alloy. Wilcox-Crittenden has been in and out of business several times, and no longer produce or service Winches. The only part Rig-Rite stocks for Wilcox-Crittenden Winches are Handles for their Marinium (Aluminum) #1 Sheet Winch. These Winches were common on East Coast production boats of the 1970's, notably Bristol, O'Day, Pearson, and Sea-Sprite.
