Thanks Chuck
Yes I know about that. 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. _____ From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Chuck S Sent: January 24, 2014 9:14 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Winch Barient 28 Hi Dwight, You probably already know this. 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.
