I replaced the primaries on my previous boat, 35 MKII, with Lewmar 48 3 speeds. A friend upgraded to self-tailers and I got a deal on them.

I used to yell 'grind, grind, grind' to the crew. Once I put these on, I started yelling 'stop, stop, stop'.

Oldies, but goodies. Never any issues. Maybe some could be found.

Yep.
A pair of Barient 32 ST, look like SS. $2,500.  I think that is a sweet deal. I paid 2K over 10 years ago for a pair of those, and was thrilled to get them.
Currently spoiled to death with Harken Electric 66 3 speed Primaries

    Always have a look for used winches on eBay. If they were
    used Lewmars, these are mostly indestructible so used is fine.
    That is how I got my ST Lewmar 44s at $500 each. Compared to ~
    $2000 each new.

        Nathan,
        Thanks for this data point!  I wish it were possible to test
        run some winches before buying -- hah!  ST50 seems large, but
        better a little large than two small.

        Hi Jeff,

        I replaced my primaries on my 34 with Anderson ST 50 winches
        in 2000. They seem sized correctly to me - I certainly
        wouldn't go smaller. They work fine for hauling in my 135
        Genoa fully loaded up but it is about all a typical crew
        can handle by themselves. If I was to do it again, I would pay
        the extra for Lewmar Ocean winches of equivalent size or maybe
        even one size up instead.
