Has anyone installed a Lewmar V1 on a 376? I am replacing a Simpson Lawrence Sprint 1000. The A1 is supposed to fit but it looks tight. Would like to use the Fastfit option but it looks even tighter. Open to other models.

The Lewmar V1 on a 376 seems light but that, of course, depends on your ground tackle.

Read the Lewmar installation manual VERY CAREFULLY and pay particular attention to the section on pulling power. Most people seem to install windlasses as a crap shoot and take what they get.

Thanks Ralph. You are right that it is right on the top spec for pulling. Should probably go with the V2. Still dealing with the space issue.
