Recommended Replacement Hand Winch and Strap for a Fulton T600 Winch

Question:

Hello, I have two Fulton T600 hand winches on my trailer and they have 2 x 15 straps...I need replacements and found some on your website, can you confirm that these straps hooks will fill the receiving hook on a 2001 SeaDoo DTX DI? Some of the replacement straps on the market have large hooks for boats that will not fit on a PWC. BoatBuckle PWC Winch Strap with Hook and Soft Tie - Loop End - 2 x 15 - 3,500 lbs Item # IMF14216 If these are not correct can you recommedn the correct straps? Thanks

It appears that the Fulton T600 has been discontinued and no longer offers replacement straps for that winch. I am going to have no way of knowing if the BoatBuckle PWC Winch Strap with Hook and Soft Tie # IMF14216 you're looking at will work with your current winch or if it will work with your SeaDoo.

That being said, the best thing I can recommend is to replace the entire winch with it's beefier upgrade the Fulton Single Speed Trailer Winch # F142002 with the strap # DL24239. This winch has a 900- lb capacity which is 300 lbs higher than the 600 lb capacity of your T600. Also, this winch has a 7" handle, a 3:1:1 gear ratio, and 600 hour salt spray rating for corrosion resistance.

I can also say that the hook on this strap measure .83" at the widest/thickest part so as long as your SeaDoo has enough space to receive that much then you'd be all set.
