we have had a navico wp300 on dashaway since 2000( this is now simrad 30 wp as they bought navico). it has been trouble free and has 2 problems, it is difficult to open the starboard shelf locker you must push it a little, and the first year i pushed the buttons at an angle thus causing a button to hang up making the pilot inoperable. that was operator error. 
winchers will work on the lewmar 48's as i said in an earlier post, the largest available should be purchased and use nylon webbing on two other winches to force it on. make sure the person  the person guiding it is careful with the hands as it really gets loaded.
