[quote=arch]been using electric winches for years to raise/lower the mast and pull the cat onto the trailer.
i bought a 2500lb winch with wireless remote control from harbor freight and it's made hauling my cat onto the trailer a piece of cake! i mounted it on the forward mast support and power it with a Superwinch wiring kit that i wired back to my engine. it comes with plenty of wire length. i only connect it to the battery when i'm using it.

the wireless remote lets me stand near the back of the boat and guide it onto the trailer. single handed loading.
i made a gin pole to raise & lower the mast using the electric winch.
