Thanks for all the feedback. You guys always have great thoughts!
I thought of a third option but not sure if it helps. I could possibly swap
the other starboard cabin top winch for a self-tailer and reroute the main
halyard. I think I have more room there to mount it there, but will have to
For the last 20 years, every March, about four of us locals, use to make

Jamestown's walk in store, those days are gone.

When I decided I had to have self-tailers for my foresail, I decided
against changing brands, and just put in a search on eBay for variant
self-tailers. Eventually a perfect pair of stainless steel winches
self-tailers popped up, and I scarfed them up. I didn't even have to remove
the bases, just t
Yes, and I think this was probably the big advantage that the old Defender
had over West Marine. With the exception of some of the main yachting
centers, if you would go into any West Marine store, which for me would be
either Cleveland or Buffalo, You could spray a paintball machine gun around
