Thread: cray winch advise

Today I have installed a cray winch onto the starboard side of my 6.1 meter Hard top Ali. I have a dual battery system,one for my house set and 1 for my motor. They are linked thru some kind of unit that will automaticlly switch over to which ever battery is low and charge it. The concept is that if i'm out at the Mercurys Islands, I can run my house set for my interier and cockpit LEDs light and then next day switch to motor battery and be able to get home. I can also switch to both batteries and these can be used at the same time if required. Thats my set up, pretty cool and I hope one day soon I can stay out there for a night and have some fun with fishing under the lights for bait and flyng fish. Here is my question, probably aimed a @mikee or @Gatgetman. I have run my wires to the main motor battery and intend to have the motor running whilst using the hauler. Would you put and inline fuse in to protect my electrics or just leave it. A fairly average lifting capacity of around 90kg
900watts
90kg lift maximum
hauling speed 35m/min
I have relised that my days as a diver both commercially and recreationly are well over, so I would love to do a bit of crayfish potting before I leave this world. Actually once Chemo and duckshooting weekends are over I intend to go to the batch and spend 3 or 4 days at a time up there. Just got to move my business on or get somone to work it. It has taken me ages to realise that your greatest wealth is your health so dont leave it to long for the fun part as I have done.
