Harken Winch Size Selection

This winch use chart will give good results, but it requires that you know the rig dimensions for your boat. You can use our Rig Dimension Database combined with Harken Compu-Spec and the table below to select winches, but be sure to confirm your dimensions before ordering a winch.

If you have any reservations or questions, please contact us.
