Tim, I stand corrected it was a double ended 3:1 to the winch. So stock you were on the primary winch above 7-8 knots.
http://www.catalina27.org/images/c270mss.jpg I changed it out for a 6:1/12:1 almost immediately. Recently I opted for something more controllable from behind the wheel but I'm going to revert to the 6:1/12:1 since it ran much cleaner.
