    12v boat hoist motor

    This set up is far from 10k pounds, just an 18’ open now with a 4cyl. The factory motor comps with a 40amp circuit breaker so generally will likely run less than 30amps in most circumstances, I would think…

    12v boat hoist motor

    Definitely however love the idea of not having to use cables running to the boat, also really didn’t want the footprint of a large battery box on my dock. I could have a Small Dewalt battery in an adapter mounted right to the lift,.

    12v boat hoist motor

    Update… so, I fabricated all of my brackets and got everything hooked up this weekend. I ran on the 12v boat battery and it went up and down however very slow and the cables seemed to get pretty warm, so I said hell with it, I wired in the Dewalt 20v battery and it worked awesome, went up and...

    12v boat hoist motor

    I thought the same, however when I called Lift Mate they told me their motor draws 13 amps? I confirmed that according to Dewalt their 5AH batteries could work up to 30 amps for 15min....... I also confirmed with Lift Mate that they should only be run on 12v which is not a problem as I can get a...

    12v boat hoist motor

    Well, the lift motor itself I believe has the gear reduction built in. Basically it’s a 12v friction wheel kit made for the hoist I am just thinking why use a car battery or a solar set up when I could just throw in a 20v dewalt battery when I need power…..

    12v boat hoist motor

    Morning folks, I am looking to add an electric friction drive to my shore master boat hoist. I found a used 12v setup however I really don’t want to use jumper cables or a large battery set up. Has anyone attempted to used a DeWalt 20v battery to work these? I can step down to 12v with a simple...

    Sticky Throttle

    Thank you. Abel’s look good but have never been replaced. If it is the throttle cable why would it work fine when I am not in gear? In neutral engine can be throttled up smoothly with no sticking. Thanks again

    Sticky Throttle

    Hi folks, I have a 2000 Chaparral 180SSE 4cly Volvo Penta. When I am on the water cruising the throttle is very tight and difficult to move however when I am docked and not in gear everything seems to move freely, what might I need to replace here. Thank You
