Things I learned relocating winches:
Winches need to be positioned so the heaviest loads, like jib and main
halyards, align with the right side of the drum. You can reduce a lot of
needless friction in these halyards sometimes by changing the lead to the
clutch most directly aligned to the rig
I have a 33-2 and wondered this as well, and Bob- you’ve nailed the rope
clutch/dodger space issue that is on my list as well…. (The winch handle not so
big a deal for me)

Good morning,I will ask a different question. Why are you moving the winches 12-18 inches from factory design? Assuming to align with a different set of rope clutches or are you adding a canvas structure and need more swing room for the handle?I will tell you the one thing i miss about my 37+ was
I always use a cone shaped grinding stone to bevel the edges of deck
penetrations. In a pinch, you can use a drill bit in reverse.

It shouldn’t chip from the countersink bit. It’s just an easier way to mask
right up to the edge of the hole.

By mask over the top I'm guessing you're saying cover the hole with masking
tape then use the countersign bit? Does that prevent chipping?

Yes, if a bit structural ( like I did, replaced Barient 6 bolts with Lewmar
EVO 5 bolts ), put tape underneat, fill with clear/liquid epoxy w/slow hardener
so the balsa absorb some, then suck epoxy from the hole and then fill holes
with a mix of epoxy/silica ). Pretty strong.If not structural
100%, + mask over the top before you countersink. If you have a small
syringe, you can inject the material which is a little bit easier.

Unthickened epoxy will just drool out like syrup. You need some kind of
filler plus colloidal silica, which makes it thixotropic. (won't sag or
run) In theory, I suppose you could use unthickened epoxy but it'd be
more work, not less in the end.
It's not a structural application job so you hav

Counter sink top and bottom, tape over bottom of hole. Then fill with thickened
epoxy. I go for about the consistency of ketchup. Without the counter sink. It
will crack over time. DougSent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device
