How to Select the Right Winch

Choosing the right winch capacity is crucial for the safety and longevity of your equipment:

1. Start by determining the total weight of your boat, including motor, fuel, and gear.
2. For general purposes, divide the total weight by 2 to find the minimum winch capacity needed.
3. Example: If your boat, motor, fuel, and gear weight is 2,200 lbs, dividing by 2 gives you a minimum winch capacity of 1,100 lbs. The Reese® Single Speed Trailer Winch 74556, with an 1100 lb capacity, is an excellent fit for your boat.

Note: In scenarios involving shallow water or steep inclines, consider a winch with a higher capacity than the minimum calculated to ensure ease of use and additional safety margin. The Reese® Single Speed Trailer Winch 74556 is designed to handle such demanding conditions effectively.
