Looks good, but I would want more chain than a five foot lift. We all
know how to re-rig, but it's a PITA.

BTW, I disagree wholeheartedly with the suggestion of a multi-part
block and tackle as a substitute. Even with cam cleats or rachets on
the B&T you have much less control. The little guy cited below is rate
for 550 pounds. To do that with a six part B&T you need to pull
around 100 pounds, including some friction, which is hard to do with
any control. A little WD-40 and a plastic bag and rust doesn't have to
worry. Even though Swee****er had plenty of winch power (13, ranging
up to 80:1 primaries), we took one of these around the world. It was
useful several times. It's on Fintry now, rust free and still useful.
