Just a typical 12V - 3000lb electric winch, using 14V 7000MAH Lipo batteries I have fully charged. I have 4, used about 60% of one on that drag.

Agreed, this 3.6m does the trick: ruclips.net/video/TQzyAQ_yaUo/видео.html

No damage that can't be brought back to new, they're a tough brand. In terms of advice on steering, I agreed along with a long list of other improvements I can make, I would appear the best way to learn is to 'giving it a go' :-)

Yes one of the bag for me for sure!

Thanks, yes once committed to a channel the choices quickly disappear!, still learning heaps, also in terms of recovery especially.

Godley River, no not a paid charter, the passengers were forced to come...

@@NZRFoster LOL, I dont think charter guests would appreciate pushing a jet boat all day with a heavy V8 and a Hamilton. I did allot of pushing in my 20's and 30's, too old for that shit now. Great video.

Thanks... Boat: Jetseeker Magnum 500 Engine: 383 Chev HP: 440 Jet Unit: Hamilton 212 with 3.2 KW impellor Camera: GoPro Max

Roger that !

I think you're smart! Thanks didn't see that, all fixed, simple mistakes I make when uploading from the phone.

Thanks

The winch has an an aluminum base with a custom fitting I had made, this slots into another separate aluminum fitting that locks onto the nose trailer winch hole(s), it holds it level and stable. Not permanent, just wanted something I could put on and off. It is too low and close to the water, I will now get something that can slot on the top of the nose and lock in. The plastic box contains, winch controller and 14.8V 4S Lipo Batteries (similar to ones used with RC Aircraft) I have 4 fully charged prior to outing. Each battery I think could drag it about 100m give or take terrain. More testing required. I don't know that product by peak marine so can't comment, this anchor would not budge in the sandy mud that I was stuck in, but when tested on more chunky gravelly stuff, it does slip a little, I think it is perfect for the job so far.

Nice I'm guessing your boat weights less than 400kg and do you have plastic or biz? I wonder if this would work on a slightly bigger ~500kg boat

@fisherhunter66 trying to work out how much it weighs, you’re probably about right. Still pretty hard to budge when it doesn’t want to. I have another boat way heavier and I have Snatch Block to try so loading is halved . Will see how that goes, what set up do you have?

@@NZRFoster yeah I wondered about a snatch block would be slower tho I have a 3.6 with Sr20 and 7.5 inch single stage here is a vid showing the pin anchor idea ruclips.net/video/Oy13Yp3tdAw/видео.html&ab_channel=WattsCraft

@fisherhunter66 That is a great set up you have there, thanks for sharing. I am impressed the "rod and pin" can pull your boat without popping out, meaning you don't have to stand on it to keep it in the ground. Great fast set up you have. The land anchor I use is very heavy, plus can drag/pop out if not properly grounded. For your reference I use Lipo batteries, light and super grunty, something like this: www.hobbycity.nz/collections/batteries-chargers/products/exliporc-9045160-14-8v-7500mah-lipo-battery but they have to be pre charged of course.

You're welcome, I could never find this stuff online when I was trying to solve this problem, I didn't expect to get stuck that day so this was totally a legitimate get out of a grounding example and the first time I actually used my winch in a proper situation. Mine is something like this: www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/other-accessories/listing/3726343653?gclid=Cj0KCQjwgO2XBhCaARIsANrW2X2qZ_8FVVduQS5NG1ezppK1joexMZprTHXxq_QOWFwwWB5gnsU2PXMaAm7aEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds google something like this: heavy duty ground anchor (12000bs load capacity) for 4wd

Thanks, yes agreed, I kept catching up to the boat in front, it was hard to go slower!

Just a Gopro Max, nothing else.
