I'd like to pull my fish house up on to my tilt snowmobile trailer using a winch mounted on a plate that is easily removed most of the time. I know I could bring a battery just to power the winch, but am wondering if I could also power it through the trailer light recepticle on the truck (Tundra)?
Just wondering if there is a down side to doing that or if it would damage the electrical system on the truck by overloading it, etc...
I'm also considering using a boat trailer hand winch, but I'm not sure how to mount that so it will work with the trailer tilted up.

We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha
motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor, wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will
want for this boat? Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke
Mariner motor) I will appreciate any help with these questions.
I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage. Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.
Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
