My 25 has Barient 22 2-speed primaries. 16s seem pretty small for your 27. One speed 16s were the winches on the Rhodes 19 daysailors I used to sail out of Burnham Harbor in Chicago.
The Power ratio for the Barient 22 is reportedly 39, and the chart I have shows the Harken, Lewmar, and Anderson 40ST as the appropriate replacement. Barient 21s have a power ratio of 30, and suggested replacement is Harken and Lewmar 30 or Anderson 28. Barient 17s can be replaced by Harken or Lewmar 16s, and Barient 18s by a Lewmar 24 (can't say I've ever seen one of these). The Arco website seems to suggest a power ratio of around 30 for a boat your size, so the Anderson 28ST may be appropriate.

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.
