Dennis, I would definitely be interested in the Barient 28 to replace one of my sad cabin top winches. Is it a two speed 28? Would take the bearings too for backup. Let me know what you want for the winch. Kevin 30-2 On Fri, Aug 26, 2016 at 9:29 AM Dennis C. via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com>

The Lewmar Astor 44 ST winches are going on sale for $650 tomorrow at Defender, should you be considering them. They had 16 in stock, 14 now :-) Neil Gallagher Weatherly, 35 -1 Glen Cove, NY On 3/22/2014 5:46 PM, Rick Brass wrote: IIRC the Barient 28 is about equivalent to a Lewmar 48 or

Thanks Jim, I'm servicing the 28's next weekend. If they're not great inside, that's probably the way I'll go. The winch monkeys are pretty strong, and we tend to cruise with the 110%. Tim > On Mar 23, 2014, at 8:57 PM, Jim Watts wrote: > > Tim, it depends on how you are sailing the boat. If

Tim, it depends on how you are sailing the boat. If you have strong crew, you can get by with lower power or you can luff up and make it easy to suck it in. I singlehand a lot, and make my wife tack the genny when we sail together, so extra power is good. Even so, grinding in the 135 the last few i

It seems the Lewmar 44 (44:1) is an almost exact replacement for the Barient 28 (42.6:1). I have been thinking about the Winchmate self tailers, but $500 will still leave old gears and bearings; $400 more would in my mind be a pretty good value to replace those too. Jim, the 28's are about on the

I replaced the original Barients (I can't remember, I think they were 25's) with Lewmar ST48's. If I could have got the same kind of deal on 52's I would have done it. I wouldn't be happy with 44's. My Barient catalogue shows the 28+ as 42.6:1 with a 10" handle, not sure if it's exactly the same w

IIRC the Barient 28 is about equivalent to a Lewmar 48 or 54 in terms of power ratio. Have you thought about converting your Barients to self tailers. Winchmate makes a conversion kit for $500 - 550 per winch. Practical Sailor gave a favorable review and I've talked to a couple of people who

Read somewhere that the Barient model number relates to a designed line load. 28 equates to 2800# line load. The winches were improved over time (80's) with better roller bearings and made stronger so that the load ratings became higher than their model number. Barient's catalog of 1986 is on St
