I replaced mine ( on my 27 ) with Lewmar EVO , chromed bronze, 7-year warranty and you can do the maintenance without tools. They are on sale now at Defender..SylvainC MkIII On Monday, March 28, 2022, 05:47:20 PM EDT, Dean McNeill via CnC-List wrote: Probably asked a lot before, but anyone know what winch would be a good replacement for Barient 25?

Dean Not quite sure what you mean by upgrade, but in my case the OEM winches were too small. Boat came with Barients - #26 primary and #22 secondary and #10 mainsheet. I picked up 2 Barient #28 from this list as primary, moved the two #26 to secondary and one #22 to mainsheet. HUGE improvement in trimming sails and still working just fine. FWIW I disassemble, clean, grease and oil on a regular basis usually in spring. All are aluminum drum and not self tailing as I do a fair amount of racing. This list and Ebay are your friends. Also suggest looking at Mass Marine in Quincy MA. They are yacht salvage and have an extensive inventory of winches. Tell John I said "hi". John Read Legacy III 1982 C 34 Noank, CT

Nope, Barient 25… took a picture of them yesterday. Maybe I should jump up a bit in size?

Hi Dean, I went with Anderson 50ST winches for the replacement primaries on my C 34. I like the size which is physically similar in diameter to the original Barients and they make winching in the genoa a lot easier than the old tired non-self-tailing Barients. I don't remember how the sizing compares to the Lewmars but you can compare the specs. I would probably go with the higher end Lewmars if I was to do it again, but the Anderson's are fine. Note, the bolt pattern was not the same as the Barrient and I filled and glassed in the old holes and redrilled to install the new winch / it was part of a bigger refit fixing lots of holes and repainting the entire deck so that wasn't a big issue for me. Not sure regarding Canadian sources. I ordered mine from Defender and they shipped directly from the factory in 2020 - I believe Defender does ship to Canada if you want. Nathan Post S.V.

I went with used Lewmar 44's. Something in the 42-48 range should work just fine.
