It worked perfectly. plenty of power for deepwater starts. We hit the beach with it and it was a blast. we had everyone asking so many questions about it ha.

How do I upload pics from my iphone?

Wow, blast from the past. Good to see you're still around CP. Nice job on the winch. I like the tennis ball feet.

they are pretty easy to build just need to know how to weld. Its cheaper to build them yourself but the cost do add up quick...
