Lewmar 49530057 EVO #30 Two-Speed Self-Tailing Aluminum Sailboat Winch, Gray

The Lewmar EVO® #30 Two-Speed Self-Tailing Winch (MPN 49530057) is a modern evolution of Lewmar's world-renowned Ocean winch, engineered for cruising and performance sailors who demand reliability, smooth operation, and effortless on-board maintenance. Built from high-quality aluminum alloy with a gray anodized finish, this size 30 winch delivers the mechanical advantage and durability that serious sailors require.

Key Features:

• Two-Speed Operation: First gear handles major sail adjustments and halyards; second gear provides greater mechanical advantage for fine sail trim and heavier loads with less effort
• Tool-Free Servicing: Simply unscrew the top cap by hand to remove the drum and access the full gear train — no tools required. Components are engineered to reassemble only one way, making servicing foolproof
• WaveSpring Self-Tailing Jaws: Wave-spring jaw system automatically adjusts to various line diameters for a reliable, consistent grip and taut sails
• Stainless Steel Feeder Arm: Investment-cast stainless steel feeder arm completely covers the top of the winch, eliminating rope traps above the self-tailing jaws
• User-Friendly Direction Arrows: Clearly marked rotation arrows ensure correct line loading by all crew members, including less experienced hands
• Gray Anodized Alloy Drum: Corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy construction designed for long-term marine use
• Gear Ratio: 2:1 first gear with a power ratio of 15.8:1
• Dimensions: 4-3/4" base diameter × 4-11/16" tall
• Weight: 6.4 lbs
• 7-Year Warranty: Backed by Lewmar's comprehensive 7-year standard warranty, with an optional lifetime warranty upgrade available
