Hello all,
I have attempted to search the archives for information and opinions on new
primary winches for C, but was not able to locate a discussion. If
there has been, my apologies. It has become apparent

Servicing winches is very worthwhile. Can't believe you race and don't service
your winches at least annually. A skipper must take steps to ensure the boat
is properly prepared for the crew. You will learn

I replaced my primaries on my 34 with Anderson ST 50 winches in 2000. They seem

Caution on a late release of a genoa. The boat has a 155% North 3Di,
which has been raced 13 times. The last race, on the last tack, leeward
crew did a late release, resulting in the spreader punching a hole just
above the spreader patch. Yes, North is going to add a little more
height to

On my C mark I, I replaced the primary winches with Lewmar 42's. I used to
sail/race with a 170 but now our class has limited the largest sail to 155. 62
yo and still occasionally single-hand in races.
Letting the jib/genoa backwind so the wind is pushing the bow into the turn
before
Tacking advice: Always remove any slack from the lazy sheet after each tack.
When you turn the boat, the release is more important than the sheeting in.
Start your tack, turning the boat ready to release, then wait till about a
third of the genoa is backwinded, release that side and slow

Hello all,
I have attempted to search the archives
I am glad the subject of tacking a large genoa came up. I have a great deal of
trouble with my 145 genoa trying to get it so it does not require extensive
winching. What tends to happen is that the clew of the genoa folds back on
itself at the mast as you come head to wind and then gets
lternative for people who do not
want to make the investment in electric winches.

Hello all, I have attempted to search
I still have the original headsail winches on my 1995 C 36 XL/kcb--Lewmar
50s self-tailing 2 speed IIRC--although I moved them forward for my local
racing needs. I also added a set of Lewmar 44s to make kite handling more
reasonable. If this combination of 'power' is not enough, I need to get
Jeff,
The second Enterprise was a 1978 C 34 and I believe she had Barient 24s. We
added some Lewmars when we raced spinnaker.
I like Richard’s electric idea, but I’m not sure you’d have room below the deck
for the motors. Suggest you talk to Lewmar, they may have bigger winches that
will us
Jeff; We solved this issue on my 38MKIIC several years ago.I replaced mine with 4 speed Pontos and we've never looked back.I think that Karver purchased the Pontos technology. They have very convincing videos and these winches work just like they say.There are no buttons to push for gear changing,
Previous owner replaced with Anderson 52’s. IMO Oversized. If that helps.
I kinda like’m though.

Jeffrey, I feel your pain...I have a 37, and it has gi-normous winches, I

If I were getting new winches, I would go electric! They will increase the sale
