Formula for selecting winch?
 

Do you know of af Formula for selecting winch based on sail area boat
length displacement etc.

I also found that getting "just the right size" was a mistake with no
100 lb cutiepie involved. After you live with a "just adequate" winch
for awhile, it soon becomes hardly worth the space it occupies in terms
of what it puts you through when you actually need it, and half the
time it is even slower & less useful than a good rope clutch. YMMV
