Brad, The clutches on my boat (33mkII 1987) are Easylock i think, the model that kind of look like a lewmar, with long levers of different colours... they do work with a 3/8 Line but tend to slip a little with main and jib halyards. it might be wear, but this up grade is on the list. i will go with a Spinlock XTS tripple to replace one of the bank. A Rigger told me that spinlocks were a bit more rough on lines but had more bite than the Lewmar.
