Powerwinch 912 12V Electric Trailer Winch - 4,000 lb

The Powerwinch 912 Trailer Winch is a well-established, solidly reliable electric winch with smooth remote power-in/freewheel-out operation. It is designed for boaters with larger boats, up to 30 feet and 11,500 pounds, who want a proven, dependable winch backed by a one-year limited warranty.

A pulley or block at the bow eye lets you double your pulling power for tough loads, though doing so slows retrieval speed by about 50 percent. The winch includes a 60 amp standard wiring harness and a pulley block for double-line applications, and its 450:1 gear ratio delivers serious mechanical advantage for boats at the upper end of its weight range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between vertical lift and double-line capacity? Vertical lift (4,000 lbs) is single-line pulling power; double-line capacity (7,500 lbs) is achieved using a pulley or block at the bow eye, at roughly half the retrieval speed.

What size boat is this rated for? Up to 30 feet and 11,500 pounds max boat weight.

Does this winch power the boat out into the water, or just freewheel? It's remote power-in/freewheel-out — power assists loading, and the boat freewheels out under its own weight.
