Have a look at the Lewmar web site.
I'm sure they give a guide on winch size

They do indeed.
Their recommendation for a masthead rig 30' yacht is size 40-to 44
I have Lewmar 30s non ST on a Halmatic 30 with around 300 sq ft Genoa. It is hard work, so maybe we should be looking to upgrade the winches.
Longer handles might help, but guard rails and dodgers get in the way!!
