Gearmatic winch
« on: January 28, 2022, 11:21:22 AM »
Any of you equipment guys or loggers know anything about Gearmatic winches?  I've got a Model 7 that I'm trying to decide what to do with.  Can't find much online on this particular winch.  Looking for specs - line pull, speed, typical uses, etc.

Got it with my boat years ago, was going to make a longline reel out of it, or a boat mounted winch to pull logs off the beach.

Who knows something about these winches?

You might try calling the service number.
