Hello all
Has anyone ever installed a winch on the rear of their Surf?
I know the norm is on the front, but i need it at the rear to winch my jetski onto the trailer attached to the towbar.
I know some people will say put it on the trailer, but i drop the trailer straight into the sea to launch the ski and i dont think the winch will last to long submerged in sal####er.
I have though about attaching a raiser from the towbar hitch, but that will then interfere with the rear tailgate dropping down. also though about putting it on the inside of the rear window but above, but there is nothing strong enough on the inner roof to handle it.
Also thought about attaching it to the spare wheel carrier on the tailgate but i dont think that will be strong enough.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers
Marty
