Electric winch

Electric winch
 
I bought one years ago and never used it. Shame you're not closer or I'd have lent or given it to you.
Assuming you mean a winch truck for pulling stuff up onto the scaffold?
I’ve used a Chinese electric winch recently. They’re decent for the price but not on par with Lewmar. For a 14t multihull, the 1200W (240kg) seems underpowered. The 1600W (340kg) is better but still borderline for serious loads. Build quality is hit or miss, so buy from a reputable supplier and be prepared to reinforce or service it. If it’s for occasional use, they can work. But for critical or frequent loads, I would go with a trusted brand.

@essexandy How's the winch?
