OK, Gang----time to put a new winch on my old trailer. I can't find an exact physical match for my old one. And, it's ate up so bad I can't find its original rating. <br /><br />Now, I'm running a 18' center console Pro-Line, w/115hp o/b, and 20 gal fuel tank. I figure the whole kit and kaboodle won't weigh over 2000lb, soaking wet.<br /><br />If my weight estimate is close to correct, will a 1200lb rated winch work OK? Seems that it would, as much of the load is wet surface sliding and not a dead lift. <br /><br />Give me some input here, please.
