Winch Recommendation for 3,190 lb Boat
Question:
We have a 2002 Super Air Nautique 21 feet long. It is 3190 pounds. Is this winch sufficient?

Expert Reply:
The 3,200 lb 2-Speed Boat Trailer Winch with 20' Strap and Brake # 315-W3200D will be sufficient to pull in your 3,190 lb boat if your trailer has rollers on it as that will make your boat easier to move. If you have bunks then it will technically work but you'll be pushing the winch to the limit so you'll want to use a winch with a higher weight rating like this one:
- 3,700 lb Fulton High-Performance 2-Speed Trailer Winch with Handbrake # F142430
- Fulton Galvanized Winch Cable with Hook # FWC7500100
