A self tailing winch with which a rope can be automatically and properly pulled and paid out. A facing pair of clamping rings splined to a rotary winch drum for rotation therewith and define a generally angular shaped groove between them, one of the clamping rings having a smooth face and a cylindrical extension defining the winding diameter for the rope and the other ring having a serrated face, the two being yieldably urged together by an elastic member, a spring or springs. The rotary drum may be driven by a gear train from a rotated input shaft. A stationary annular plate anchored to a stationary frame lies adjacent to one clamp ring and supports a feeding device for feeding the rope from the drum to the groove and also supports a guide device for paying out rope from the groove.
