Hey all,
Has anyone tried to use an electronic winch to drop & retrieve their anchors? I know that the windlass is the proper tool to use but as I'm sure your aware the windlass runs between $600.00 & $1000.00 where I've found The VIPER Max 4500 Pound Waterproof ATV Winch by Kawasaki for only $229.00. Being that the unit is completely sealed and waterproof I dont see why it cant be used as an anchor retriever. Does anyone have any thoughts or experience on this matter?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks as always,
