Lewmar winches - Ocean or Evo?

[richardm47]

We're intending to replace our old Lewmar 40 non-self-tailing winches. I'm leaning towards the Lewmar 40 CST from their Ocean range, because the Ocean is more of a classic look for my 30 year old boat. But their Evo range would also look good and seems a little bit less expensive. Does anyone have any thoughts about that choice - are there any other considerations, perhaps the newer Evo isn't yet proven in practice?

(A quick google suggests that Marine Super Store at Port Solent might be the best price.)

I wonder if one or the other is best suited to your current bolt holes.

Chances are neither will match. Heron Yacht Services usually have very good prices on Lewmar wiches, have a website but not online shop, telephone for quote. http://www.heronyachtservices.co.uk/index.htm
