| Author: Thomas Jenkins Subject: Upgraded Winches Info: (17190 views) Posted: Wednesday 10-17-07 07:44:56 PM |
I completed a winch upgrade to the boat about a year ago where I replaced the Lewmars with Harkens. I started out with the Harken 16's single speed on the genoa winches, and have recently moved those to the cabin top for halyard use, and placed Harken 32s 2 speed on the genoa. The Harken winches are excellent in ALL respects. Tom
:: I am looking at upgrading the jib winches on my Express
:: 27 from Barient 10 to a two speed Harken 16X2. Anybody
:: have any input on this? I have found the Barient 10's
:: inadequate in a good blow, especially for the genoa.

:: Your input would be greatly appreciate!
