Dwight,
I have both the 28 and 28+ on my boat. The 28+ has a larger drum diameter. I have custom winch covers, so if I get them mixed up the 28 covers won't fit on the 28+ winches. The 28's are used as my primary winches (fwd part of cockpit), although I do use the 28+ when I single hand. The winches are right next to the wheel. Very convenient.

What I don't know is why mine are called 28+.mine are self tailing winches and maybe the self tailing part is why the + designation.I don't think there is a manual on the photoalbum site for Barient 28+ winches but in all other respects besides the self tailing part my 28+ winches seem exactly the same as the 28's. My second sheet winches are Barient 26's which I believe were standard when the boat left the factory.all 4 sheet winches run fine but I have not cleaned and lubed them in about 10 years so it's high time I attend to that.
