Winch rusty old boat winch for pulling boats up the beach at Seaford head. Open to the elements and salt water the iron and steel has heavy corrosion

---

This rusty relic is on public display fixed on location where it used to be used winching boats up the beach, a more recent model is now nearby. The corrosion wear and broken frayed cable give age and historic interest but the salt water and spray would have accelerated the rusting process.
