Sam - You're lucky to have a foresail trimmer, my foresail trimmer is
the same guy that is doing the main sail trim, and the helming, and
operating the engine, and hoisting the sails, and getting the boat to
and from the dock, i.e. me. I don't have an autohelm, nor even a wheel
brake, so something easy to operate is my primary need as I almost
exclusively single-hand (quite literally).
Rick - it sounds like you've sailed some nicely over-winched boats, my
24' had Barient 12s if I recall correctly, and they were fine on a boat
that size.
Steve - they must have put bigger winches on later boats, I checked
today and they are definitely 16s on there.
I might pull the trigger on a pair of shiny stainless Andersons if they
physically fit, I have to get the measurements. It's only money *sigh*.
Cheers,
Paul.

Not quite the same size, but my 26 has had Lewmar 16ST's on the
combing for about 4 seasons now. I sail with a 135 on a roller furler.

?Works perfectly according to my foresail trimmer.
Definitely don't need a 2 speed unless you're not very good at tacking.

Hi Listers,
I'm seriously considering replacing the current (I assume factory
standard) Barient single-speed winches. I'm not at the boat at the
moment, I think they are 16s. Anyway, I am looking at the Anderson 28ST
(two speed, self tailers). Is the 28 too big, too small, what do you
have on your 27?
Cheers,
Paul.
