Dave & Janice sweet set up, but do see a powered winch in your future. Enjoy the South.

It’s on the side by side in the back of the entire video🤦

Very helpful video. Do you have the information or website I can look to get that hand crank winch? Thank you.

[@psarellas]

I’m interested in getting more info too on the portable winch mount set up you used. Thanks for posting this video!

The winch is a Dutton Lainson B3500 www.dutton-lainson.com/proddetail.php?prod=B3500 Sorry for the slow response. D

@@NoFixedAddress Thanks NFA - enjoy the rest of the summer!

[@psarellas]

@@NoFixedAddress Thanks for the winch info - I was actually interested in the portable winch mount you used. It would save us having to permanently mount a steel beam onto rock or pour concrete- thanks again.

Yup Jack frost is on the way!, Time to get hunkered down!

[@NoFixedAddress]

Or time to head South! D&J

Seems like a lot of work, but I guess it is important when the lake will freeze.

[@NoFixedAddress]

Actually, compared to removing a standard dock where each section has to be moved out if the water and places in shore, it’s hardly any work at all. D&J

Very dangerous how you stood in the “bight of the coil”....I am an old salt and saw a Able Seaman get hurt with a steel cable on the HMCS Gatineau in the late 70’s. Not a pleasant sight.

Thanks for the feedback. Do you have any suggestions as to how we can do it safely? D
