Thanks for showing that. thinking about buying a sailboat myself. Watched a KZitem by Maryland school of sailing. A guy there said, that, those springs should be replaced when maintenance is done on the wenches. and few people do. makes sense because of metal fatigue. you wouldn't want one breaking when you're out to sea.

+Sigiberht Very good Idea to change them out. Having a winch fail could be disastrous. Thanks for watching and commenting! We really appreciate it.

Nice job. I do remember my first winch service with springs bouncing overboard when I removed the drum. Cleaning and lubing winches is a annual job that will insure they last.

I like the way you explain the shitty jobs that no-one wants to do, or think that don't happen on a yacht. Thanks for the great show.

+Duncan Bell Thanks Duncan, I am trying to capture the reality of it all. I wish every day was umbrella drinks and bikinis but it seems for every 1 day of sailing is an equal day preparation! for now, I am sure I will have less to do once I have completed the projects I created for myself. Thanks for the comment and for watching

You know....it is attention to detail that is required. And your video shows just that. Thank you for posting it. Where the hell else am I supposed to learn how to do it? I dont like 'manuals' I need to actually 'visually' see someone do it. I have bookmarked this video in my 'favorites' section because I know i will need it later. Right now, I am still searching for the boat. Thanks for posting! Great video-

All - just remember to be super careful when taking apart...Barient / Barlow went out of business long ago...There is a company in Australia, Hutton/Arco who purchased the tooling and have some parts that ship from Australia at premium pricing. Understand, the pawls of a winch are the heart of any winch. They break = the winch handle flies around with full force breaking wrists and anything in its way. That is why it is wise to replace pawls & springs at servicing. Pay special attention to the bronze gear the pawls seat into - if excessive play, replace the gear. The bottom line...don't buy a boat with Barient / Barlow - unless you can get a price reduction to replace all the winches with Lewmar or Harken. Those parts are available world wide. Food for thought.

Great information!. I knew nothing about the availability of the winches when we purchased Southern Cross but since have noticed very few options. No I know why. Thanks for adding this comment to the board! and thanks for watching.

Nice video on how to the Barlow winch in maintained! I have a video that will be uploaded soon showing a time-lapse servicing on one of my Barient winches and later another one showing a closer look at it. :)

LifeisLikeSailing - Vancouver, BC That's great! I think videos like your haul out and winch services Ect.. are very valuable and helpful. I refer back to a lot of your earlier productions for hints and ideas as I go through my boat. Thanks!

You can also use your wench handle and one allen wrench or punch instead of two allens and a file. That way there is only one tool at risk for falling over instead of three.
