Collection: Trailer Winches

Load Rite and Powerwinch cover the main use cases here, from lightweight single-speed manual winches suited to smaller boats up to heavy-duty two-speed models rated to 3,200 lbs for larger trailered vessels. Single-speed winches work well for lighter loads and straightforward retrievals, while two-speed models give you a lower gear for the final pull when a hull is partially on the trailer and resistance increases sharply. Strap length ranges from 12 to 27 feet across these models, and handle size varies between 7 and 8 inches, both of which affect how comfortably you can crank from your trailer's winch post position.

Powerwinch also covers applications beyond boat trailers, including an anchor winch helm switch kit sized for 31, 36, and 41 foot class anchor systems, a folding and pop-up camper winch, and a pot puller for crab or lobster gear. Before choosing, confirm that your target winch capacity exceeds your loaded boat weight with a reasonable margin, that the mounting pattern matches your winch stand, and that the strap length suits your trailer setup. All products sold here are genuine and carry the full manufacturer warranty.
