A winch, a retainer assembly and a method for assembling a winch. The winch may include a fixed first housing supportable on a surface, and a second housing supported for pivoting movement relative to the first housing, the second housing including a winding portion and spaced apart flanges defining an outwardly-facing groove, a line being windable on the winding portion and positionable in the groove, the winch being operable to apply a pulling force to the line. A retainer assembly may include a support connected to the first housing, and a retainer connected to the support and positioned to cover at least a portion of the winch groove, the retainer inhibiting radial movement of the line from the groove. In some constructions, the support has a flexible portion allowing movement of the retainer relative to the first housing. In some construction, the retainer includes a first retainer member and a second retainer member supported by the support to define a space between the first retainer member and the second retainer member, the line being radially movable relative to the groove through the space.
