I need to buy a new winch for a 18 1/2 foot lund flat bottom. I'm not sure how much weight I'll need to run in the grand river for an anchor. We have a 60 horse merc. on the boat. So what type of wench and how much weight will it take to hold a boat like this at sixth street on the grand?

Thanks for any info!!!

-Mike

It's not even handlebar time of year, they can't be appreciated with the type of crowd this time of year, common place to say the least... Laughing

My wife would say that those are not called women. There BITCHES. My wife is so competitive when it comes to fishing and huntin. She say's the word NO shouldn't ever be said when askin to go fishin. And men should have to ask thats way your men... Here quote "Hunny I'm going fishing" and the response should be "Ok i'll see ya when you get home. Have fun." Wow I have a great wife..
