Does Pro Series Winch # PSKR15000301 Pull Load in and Let it Out by Turning the Handle

Updated 11/04/2014 | Published 11/03/2014

Question:

Will this allow me to slowly push the boat off the trailer into the water if I crank the winch in reverse and not just free spin and cause the boat to speed off the trailer. Im wanting something while keeping tension on the boat to slowly slide boat off trailer. Thanks

Yes, the Pro Series brake winch # PSKR15000301 is designed to be able to pull the line in or let it out depending on which way you are turning the handle. This winch does not have a freewheeling mode so you cannot pull the line out manually and the load, in this case a boat, would not just slide freely off of the trailer.
