Hey, we're in the process of refurbishing our boat (24 footer which we race quite a bit) both sheet winches need replacing (lewmar 16 2speeds). All three of us that own the boat are students so we're on a pretty tight budget. We've seen the Barton winches in various chandlers and they're about half the price of any other.
Wondered if anyone had used them and had anything good or bad to say about them as I can't find a review anywhere
