I also like bronze winches, which age in a manner that
in my opinion, improves their looks. Of these I'd say
Lewmar make a handsome bronze winch. In fact I
like the looks of Lewmar the best.

Thanks, Bart. We have bronze Lewmars on Clover. They do age nicely, with a
brown patina except where rope polishes the metal to a brassy color.
