[C38] Replacing old Lewmar 48 jib/genoa winches-> recommendations

[Don Strong]

   Pierre: I replaced the original Lewmars with self tailing Lewmar 48s. 
The holes are not the same. It is very difficult to reach the nuts on 
the bolts beneath the originals so I cut a port to access them and the 
bolts for the new winches. Regards, Don
