Hello,

I would like to convert the Furnas Drum Switch in my boathouse to wireless - The switch controls the winch in my boathouse and lets boat trolley into water or pulls it out.
-Switch has center off position.
-Turn switch left and lets boat down into water.
-Turn switch to right pulls boat out of water.

The switch and electric motor were installed during the 1960's and work great - Just would like to have ability to use switch wireless from boat

I am attaching a few photos of my switch and some photos from internet of wiring schematic.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
