So I spent the money and bought the stein rcw 3002 with the winch. It says 6000 pound lifting capability. I like the dual bollard setup, it gives you some more options. Unlike the other winch devices out there all of the load isn't supported solely by the winch like the Hobbs or grcs. The winch is only there to advance the line and the weight is supported by the bollard. I don’t expect it to be as fast as the grcs or Hobbs which isn’t a huge deal. If it takes a few minutes longer to do what it’s supposed to that’s all that matters. And for the price of the stein compared to the others it’s drastically cheaper. If anyone owns one and sees this post, I would greatly appreciate some tips on using it. I haven’t put it to the test yet I’m hoping in the next week or two I’ll be able to get to some bigger jobs that require it, and I will be sure to let everyone know how it works. I’ll try and take some videos with it in action.
