Electric winch
Look for a winch to bolt onto my trailer to pull up my 5.5m RIB during beach recovery. Power will come from the towing tractor which will be running, so no shortage of juice ... recovery needs to be brisk, so something with a bit of speed (or variable) would be good 
Any ideas folks ?

Hi Murray how are you?
Listen Jeff put Pikey Dave and me onto this last year Lawson DainsonTW 9000. He's had one for years if you search you'll find the thread but better still pm Jeff he was very helpful to us.
Cheers
Billy

I saw Lawson Dainson in rep in 1953, top actor. No-one has bettered his Scarlet O'Hara.

I have used a Goodwinch for 6 years with no probs recovering a 5.3m. Might not be quick enough though.Think it was £300 with Dyneema rope.

Maybe! Can`t remember. Good idea to try and keep the manual winch mounted somewhere so you can recover if you don`t have power for any reason.

Not in 6 years. Mind you I am a fairweather boater so it has not had a hard life.It gets some spray off the rope but doesn`t seem to bother it and I dont flush it after use.

Hi Murray yes it does its some piece of kit as I said have a word with Jeff he hauls his 6m dive rib up with all the gear on and he has no problems over ten years.
Its a heavy bugger and importing it is a pain although Dave did that part if you buy thru UK distributor its £750 n0tes we brought ours in for £450
Hope that helps.
Can you kick my bank manager for me

I was just feed up with shallow slips and the endless hauling at my age I took the plunge makes ribbing that bit more enjoyable and effortless
well worth it

So you got the battery all sealed PD .. but you still got a connector to the winch exposed ? wont that be bothersome if it gets the inevitable dousing .. and .. are those winches water proofed well ? I take it the sheilds come off so you can flood them with oil ?
