30AST Two Speed Self Tailing Winch - Aluminum

Lewmar Ocean 30AST Two-Speed Self-Tailing Winch — Aluminum (49030000)

A two-speed self-tailing sailboat winch — Lewmar's most popular winch design, gentle on the line but with a firm, reliable grip, now with a low gear for grinding in heavier loads.

Why It's Worth It
The two-speed gearbox gives you a high gear for quick trimming and a low gear (29.2:1 power ratio) for grinding in heavier loads under real tension — a meaningful step up from the single-speed 16ST when you're sailing a bigger boat or heavier sail plan. The Wavespring self-tailing jaws still automatically adapt to a wide range of line diameters, and internally, loads ride on permanently lubricated, smooth-running stainless steel roller bearings that won't seize under high load. Size 50 and smaller winches in this range share the same pawls, simplifying spares if you're running multiple sizes on the same boat.

Use
A manual, two-speed self-tailing winch sized for mid-size sailboats or primary winch positions where you need both quick-trim and high-power gears. The screw-on cap and strip-from-the-top construction let you service internal components without removing the winch from the boat.
