      I have older Lewmar #48ST winches that are in excellent condition…. except for a “flanged spacer ring” (pn 15044627) which is made of plastic and shouldn’t cost much more than a few bucks. The problem is that Lewmar doesn’t have any in stock and they quit making them several years ago.
      One guy I spoke with suggested that I have them made.

      Does anyone have a brilliant idea that will get me out of this mess?

      Lee,
      You might give PYacht a call.  They stock some old Lewmar parts.  I think the guy you spoke to is right, you'll probably have to get one fabricated.

      Did they tell you what kind of plastic it’s made from (or if the exact kind matter much)? It might something you could order in a sheet and just it out yourself, but I’m kind of guessing at that one.
      You could google for a local Plastics shop. TAP Plastics is a place that has been talked about my local friends, but I’ve not been there for anything yet. They’re a W. Coast chain.

      My winch guy said the plastic ring was decorative only and could be left off ( I am talking about a full circumference ring, red, about an eighth of an inch near the bottom of the chrome drum). Mine have been off for four years.
