[QUOTE="Ozark River Runner, post: 422353, member: 20678"] On my old 1644 Alweld with a rivercraft trailer I had to replace my winch twice due to the teeth stripping out. I cannot remember the weight rating but it was enough for the boat. There are times I have to winch mine up on the trailer with the bunks completely out of the water. I'm not sure if it was the weight or cheap quality winch from Bass Pro but when I went to a much larger winch than what my boat weighed, it eliminated the problem. You might be fine if you have a good boat ramp where you would only have to winch the boat a short distance to get it tight. [/QUOTE]
