Well, it would be nice to have a "pair and a spare" but I am expecting from my experience that the job of cleaning and lubricating one winch might take about 2 hours or less.and I know there are lots of little parts that I have to make sure don't get away.am I being over optimistic on how long this job may take for each winch.I am thinking a nice warm day in the sun before launch might do the trick.winch day let's call it, because I have been a bad boy and have not attend to my sheet winches in a long time (10 years) and I don't know when they may last have been done but they still work fine.I expect that they will work much easier after I am finished

I actually have a spare gear case for my Barlow 28's, cleaned, lubed and ready to go. I pull one off the boat, slap in the spare and bring the "dirty" one home for maintenance. It then goes back to replace the other "dirty" one which then becomes the clean spare. The Barlow and Barient 28's are nearly identical. Dennis C.

I recently learned the trick to do the 28's is to remove the drum to remove four allen head screws to remove the whole winch from the base. Brought them home and I work on them where it's warm. Reading the Barient maintenance article on Stu's website I learned ". . . the drum can be used as a holder for the inverted gear housing. Insert the stem of the gear housing into the top of the drum." How sweet is that? It's so nice to have the winches home, in a controlled environment where nothing can get lost overboard.
