New member here and I should start with a huge THANK YOU to this site, I have been stalking for the last week and it has changed my entire outlook on my project that I will be doing over the next couple of months. My first question is about anchor winches, I have a 16 ft Ouichita flat bottom that I will be setting up for salmon and steelhead fishing the rivers. I have looked at a lot of the builds on this site and haven't found anything on anchor winches. It is a must on the rivers here in Northern Michigan and I am looking for some cheaper alternatives to the $1000 winch systems. Does anyone have any cheaper alternatives out there, or some creative ways to mount in the front? I will start a build thread when I begin my project, but I am in the planning stages now. Thanks.
