"Oh yea and all the wire and other stuff that will break the bank"

As mentioned, Genuinedealz.com for wire, adhesive heat shrink, etc.

"To be determined. Windlass: ?"

If you fish a lot for sure go with a free drop model, Lewmar Profish 1000 is sweet. 600' is the limit on 1/2" eight plait rope on my boat, however do go with the eight plait, yeah it's expensive but if your using a windlass it's the only way to go.
