Default Main halyard winch, 1sp. or 2sp?

What is the relative cost difference and what if you break one of the other
winches? I have never heard anyone say, "Geez this winch is too powerful."

I'm going to replace the old wire main halyard winch, on my 35' sloop,

with a
line winch. Just wondering if there is a need for a 2sp. winch, for

halyard use
only. Other 2sp. winches are available for lifting, hoisting aloft, etc.
Thanks to all.
