[C320-list] Lewmar winches

[katchu@chartermi.net]

I’ve used Crowley’s before for winch parts and they are excellent.  You can also download information on all the winch parts on the Lewmar site, and the exploded parts list really helps to see how everything goes together.  Keep the grease off the pawls and go easy on both the grease and the oil.  I usually soak the parts in mineral spirits first to clean them before re-assembly.

During the Strictly Sail boat show, I met with the rep from Crowley that 
specializes in the winch maintenance.  He disassembled and reassembled 
one in their booth.   Now I am ready to order the lube and a set of 
spare springs and pawls, so when I get back to the boat, I can service 
all of my winches.   For the 1995 model, can some one tell me the 
correct models that we have?

Thanks,
