Most like these are Atkins & Hoyle, one has been replaced on my 35. I was

I did a similar winch installation on my previous C 29-2. I mounted Barient
ST24 winches in place of the existing Barient 18's. Instead of using and
aluminum adapter, the ones I fabricated were made from 1/4" thick stainless
