[C38] Lewmar 48ST Winches - Old/New

[Max Soto]

Hi Pierre, I bought some parts from Lewmar, but for a different winch. They
should have parts for the three speed winches. West Marine sells a Lewmar
repair kit with pawls, spring and locking rings for the three speed winches.
I made one of my  washers the way Steve did.. Got an oil plastic gallon and
cut the washer from it.. Still working after eight years!!

regards
