Attwood Dual Drive Trailer Winch 11195-4, 2,000 Pound Capacity, 4.1:1 Gear Ratio
The Attwood 11195-4 is a dual drive trailer winch built to load and secure boats up to 2,000 pounds. The dual drive design distributes pulling load equally across two sets of gears, which eliminates frame torque and gives a smoother, more controlled crank compared to single-drive winches. With a 4.1:1 gear ratio, the winch multiplies hand-crank effort so loading heavier boats stays manageable, and general trailer-winch practice allows use on boats up to roughly twice the rated capacity when winching onto a trailer (rather than lifting).
A three-position pawl gives forward, neutral, and reverse operation, so the winch can free-spool for unwinding or lock for holding the load. The housing and hardware have a black EDC (electro-deposition coating) finish for corrosion resistance, and the crank handle uses a molded, textured roller grip for a secure hold in wet conditions. Each winch ships complete with a 2-inch x 20 foot nylon web strap and a zinc-plated snap hook, so it is ready to mount and use without sourcing a separate strap.
This winch is intended for loading, securing, and retrieving trailer boats. It is not intended for use as a hoist, and Attwood states it must not be used for lifting, supporting, or transporting people, or for lifting loads over people.
