Horizon 500 windlass question

[Legend]

Has anyone ever replaced a Horizon 500 windlass on their boat. Mine is a 2004 and I was wondering if the newer Lewmar windlasses are designed to fit the same deck bolt holes?

Info from this page on their website

"Horizon 400 (serial prefix 528)/Horizon 500 (serial prefix 529)

Closest direct replacement Pro-Sport"


The Pro-Sport page has CAD drawings with a template for drilling. You can compare with the Horizon.
