Hi All,
I traveled to annapolis yesterday to the sailboat junk store.
Found two Barlow 23 winches amongst a bunch of old Barlow 20s. The 23 turns out to be a two speed, so i got a better deal.
But now I am realising that it is a bigger winch than the (lewmar?) winches on my coaming. I am wondering if I need to put the bigger Barlows on the coaming, and move the small single speed lewmars to the cabin top.
What do you think?
Anybody remove their coaming winches? Is it difficult?
What is the exact model of our coaming winches? I may be able to download mounting info.
Thanks,
roy
