Lewmar wins DAME award at METS 2006

Kim Hollamby, chairman of the Jury of the DAME Award, announced the winner of the prestigious prize during the Breakfast Briefing this morning. An excerpt of the jury report on the DAME winner:

“A strong and varied mix of category winners presented the jury with a challenging task of selecting an overall winner. The ONETOUCH WINCH HANDLE from LEWMAR LTD. of the United Kingdom won that tough contest thanks to its extremely clever rethinking of a piece of equipment whose formulaic design most people take for granted.

The carbon fibre OneTouch rejects a traditional bi-square lock arrangement in favour of a plunger pin and ball system similar in concept to that used in racing car quick-release steering wheels. The mechanism is operated by a lever that runs the length of the winch handle; allowing it to be easily engaged and released with one hand.

Elegant in concept, aesthetically pleasing, strong on detail design, well executed, effective and a great step forward — Lewmar’s OneTouch Winch Handle ticked all of the essential DAME boxes and is therefore a very worthy winner.”
