Chuck,

I replaced the Schaeffer clutches on my 35-3 with Lewmars a couple of years
ago.  I downsized lines when I replaced the running rigging and the
Schaeffers wouldn't have worked for the high-tech line.  They were also the
reason why I had to replace the running rigging (when they ate the last
set...).
