What does a boat winch do?
A boat winch assists in pulling and lifting your boat onto a trailer, making loading and unloading much easier and safer.
What size winch do I need for my boat?
As a general guideline, choose a winch with a capacity that is at least 75% of the total weight of your boat, motor, fuel, and equipment. There are multiple factors that affect required winch capacity e.g. launching on a steep ramp requires a higher-capacity winch than winching on a gently sloping ramp. Capacity recommendations differ between manufacturers, so always check the product's User Manual before purchasing a winch.
