Powerwinch 912 Marine Trailer Winch - 11,500 lb Capacity, 12V, 40 ft Cable

The Powerwinch 912 Marine Trailer Winch is an electric trailer winch built to take the physical strain out of loading a boat onto its trailer. Instead of manually cranking a boat into place against gravity, the 912 uses smooth power-in/freewheel-out action so the operator can winch the boat in with the press of a button and then freewheel the cable back out by hand for the next launch. It is rated for boats up to 11,500 pounds and delivers a vertical lift capacity of 4,000 pounds on a single line, retrieving cable at a line speed of 8 feet per minute through a 450:1 gear ratio. For heavier pulls, a pulley or block can be rigged at the bow eye to double the line capacity to 7,500 pounds, which halves retrieval speed but roughly doubles pulling strength; the winch is not intended to be used as a hoist. The unit runs on a 12-volt DC power source and is protected by a 60 amp circuit breaker. It comes fitted with a 40 foot cable measuring 7/32 inch in diameter, and the winch body measures approximately 10 inches deep, 10 inches wide, and 8 inches high. The Powerwinch 912 is backed by a one year limited warranty.
