Default Advice sought on electric trailer winches...


Just another of your lies hey Harry???

You don't own a boat & never have, not your latest manufactured lie
about the Parker nor the "lobster" boat you claim & you most certainly
didn't launch anything "on your own", the real owners of the Parker
would never ever allow that, not even regular paying charter customers.
You just make these stories up once & a while to try & pretend you're a
boater, to cover for your political lying spam.

Oh well I guess your boat lies are tame compared to your loony left
political lies, Harry the liar of the left.

Here's some of your previous lies, pasted in your own words of course,
about boats & a BS story you made up about your father in your sad
attempts to pretend you're something you're not, & what you are is well
below a turd on a stick.


Harry's own words;

"Have you ever sailed from San Francisco to Hawaii? I have.
Have you ever rounded Cape Horn? I have, twice.
Have you ever transited the Panama Canal? I have.
Have you owned more than 20 boats in your lifetime? I have.
Have you ever sailed large boats competitively? I have.
Have you ever been hundreds of miles from land in a powerboat
under your command? I have."

OR

"My father and his chief mechanic once crossed the Atlantic in
winter in a 22'boat powered by twin outboards. Yes, it is possible,
even the fuel. Got a "fireboat" welcome in NYC."

Yesterday, just for the hell of it, I did a solo launch and retrieval of
our Parker 25. The launch was easy, as I was using a deep ramp. The boat
just floated free of the trailer, so I tied it off and parked the tow
vehicle and trailer.

The retrieval was more complicated, but I was able to do it. I'm
wondering, though, whether it would be simpler to buy and install an
electric trailer winch with the capacity to pull the boat up into
position on the trailer. It's a bunk trailer, and, simply by tugging
hard on a line attached to the bow deck chock, I can get the boat pretty
much up on the trailer. I winch it up the remaining two feet using a
hand winch, and, while I can do it, it takes considerable effort. The
winch is sized properly for the boat...but it is a large, heavy boat.

Installing an electric winch on my trailer is not difficult. Where do
you put the battery, though? And...how long do these electric winches
last? I always see guys at the boat ramp struggling with "dead" electric
winches...do they burn out in a hurry? Does rain shorten their lives?

Advice? Brand recommendation? We're talking a 3-1/2 ton boat/motor/fuel
and gear load here, I'd guess.

It's amazing, considering your obvious continued abuse of restricted
substances, how you keep earning these five day releases from
incarceration, Ms. Smith.

How's that imaginary diesel outboard motor manufacturing facility you
don't have?

Got any advice on trailer winching?

Not trailer wenching, which I'll bet you do know, eh?

Indeed, and in her youth, about sixty years ago, she probably was being
pumped at truck stops...for chump change.

Krause recently claimed his wife was a doctor and working towards a
PhD....he said he calls her doctor-doctor. When challenged, he backed down
on the claim.

I made a $10,000 bet with Krause that he did not own a custom made 36 foot
lobster boat. I offered to fly down at my own expense. He turned down the
bet.

Don't forget his previous claim of owning a Hatteras...yet he was found to
be a liar on this claim also.

He has a history of having to fabricate stories about his life for some
strange reason. All lies. His real life must be pretty darn boring.

How sad it is for him to have to wake up each morning and realizing he has
to go through another day living the nightmare life of Harry Krause.

Yep Jim he sure is a sad little grub, although I say he has a mental
problem (I reckon he's appropriated his therapist to create the "wife"
lies, probably court ordered therapist of course:-)) so is sorta not
responsible. However as for his little groupies like asskisser etc that
tag along lapping happily from his sewer of lies??? they really are the
simpletons.

Ah I do love the smell of roasting liar in the morning, garnished with
simpletons:-)

My 24 ft I/O cuddy weighs almost as much and has the same issues
although I don't store it on the trailer most of the time. It's my
sense of things that if you have access to a good deep water ramp, a
winch is not really needed. The key is backing the trailer to exactly
the right depth. My technique is to first back the trailer to a depth
where the boat will stay put on the bunks and allow the bow cable to
be attached. If you then back a little deeper, the boat should winch
on with almost no effort. You can put depth markers on your guide
tubes to show both levels although this will vary somewhat depending
on ramp steepness.

Thanks. Yes, I back the trailer down into the water to where a cross
brace traverses the front of the "A-frame" and at this point, the stern
of the boat floats and I can then push it off the trailer. For
retrieval, I probably should back the trailer down a few more inches and
see what happens. I really hadn't tried to do this alone before, because
of the size and weight of the boat, and its windage. But it wasn't too
bad. I am not a fan of "powering" the boat onto the trailer, since that
puts a hell of a strain on the trailer bunks and uprights.

One of the guys on a fishing board suggested I make sure I am in "low"
gear when winding up the winch, and you know, that never occurred to
me...I do have a two-speed winch, and I've never tried "low."

Fortunately, the ramp I am using is pretty decent, and there always are
bunches of guys around to lend a hand or at least to giggle, although
everyone really is very helpful.
