We have a Beneteau 352 and there are only two winches on the boat, both atop the cabin. We have plans to install two additional winches back near the wheel on the combing with a bracket. The winches currently on the boat are Lewmar 42. We have found a good deal on a pair of Lewmar 40. We will use the new winches primarily for the operation of the jib, which is a 140% genoa. The additional winches placed in the back will make single hand sailing much easier.
Will the Lewmar 40's be sufficient or will we have a problem going down one size from the 42's?
