that the number varies with the brand. An Andersen may be a 26 and a lewmar may be a 30. I have no idea on a Harken. One thing though they should be 2 speed. I have 4 on my 37 by 2 different manufacturers, but I don't remember the specifics because they were put on a long time ago and I keep them covered. I will make another response after I check my boat.
