I will be praying for your return to freedom,or your ability to come and go

With all due respect to Rich, I don't think you need the 50s. I sail on a
Benne 39 with Lewmar 30s! They are the best thing on the boat. Epoxy the
holes, and if necessary, get a piece of teak or starboard and cut it in a
circle to go under the winch to cover the space occupied by the prior winch.
Hi,
Maybe ST30 is a bit too small, this is what I bought for my 27MkIII . Safe
working load is around 1400 lb.
On a 33 I would go with EVO CST40 which have a swl of 1750lb. And I would go
with the starboard route as a base. 3/4 inch plywood or aluminum as a backing
plate.

Some comments. First, polish the area with AquaBuff 2000 (preferred) or 3M
Finesse-It and a high speed DA polisher using lots of water. Go slowly
otherwise you'll remove all the gelcoat. If you start to see structure through
the gelcoat, STOP!

I have never heard anyone complain that their winches were too big.
One trick to fill the old holes is to tape off the bottoms, then drip
enough 5-minute epoxy in to cover the bottom of the hole. This kicks off
very quickly and seals the hole so the later slow-cure epoxies don't drip
through.

I replaced the original Barient 28's on my LF38 with a pair of last generation
Lewmar 65's that I bought from a guy who replaced them with electric winches.
Yes they are a bit big, but they fit, are easy on the crew, and I don't have to
look at non-factory patch jobs made necessary by undersized
Just have your crew work on their upper-body strength.
Winches are for quitters.

Yes, Lewmar covers that in their Technical Guide.
On their table they mention that if you have fractional rig you should go with
the square area of the sail. For masthead rig they recommend to match with the
length of the boat.
For a EVO ST40 used for genoa sheets here is what they recommend:

Actually, I deleted it. Sometimes it's smart to just sit down and shut
up. (A good Captain knows how to be good crew... )

Yeah, but the women do.

With my boat in Mexico I recently had to list the engine serial number on
my Temporary Import Permit. After a futile search to find the serial
number I created one.

I have Lewmar ST 48's and they are definitely not oversize for the boat. If
I could have sourced 52's at the same discount I would have gone for those.
Rich's 65's sound even better.

Happy holidays Barbara,
What was confusing with old Barient Winches is that the umber didn't reflect
their power ration. When I replaced my old Barient, I found that the equivalent
to the 22 was the 40s. That is, when using a 10 inch long handle, if you put a
10 lbs pressure on the handle, the w

So a couple weeks before Christmas, a windstorm of 40 – 50 km/hr ripped apart
my 130 genoa overnight. It stayed furled on the boat but the top caught the
wind and peeled it down, ripping 3 panels across the leech / UV cover, breaking
the leech line, etc. No damage to the furler though ... I had

Apparently I've got a few $ coming for Xmas gift to address (a small bit of) my
new boat needs.
I thought it would be prudent to get a couple of comfortable inflatable life
vests.

A ten-year-old sail is, in most insurance companies' eyes, a tarp. If it's
shredded by a 20-knot breeze, it's not even that good. Time for a new sail.
Merry Christmas! An excellent excuse.

Well ... going from the nearest marine station we had 18 continuous hours of
wind over 50km/hr (30 kts). That’s the average of the last 2 minutes of each
hour. I was at the boat about 5-hours into that 18-hour time period and
everything was doing fine.
Not sure on the maximum gust speeds but th

You said "Policy coverage is for depreciated value on sails and they will only
cover “reasonable cost of repairs actually incurred” for partial losses."
Can you reasonably expect more than what your coverage offers?
