I power off and on.
Back down, let out 4 to 5' strap, stand on pick up tail gate - from there across winch onto boat,,, power up just enough to loosen strap,,, reach over bow,, take off strap,, tie up,,, park it...

Reverse for loading with the added use of gaff to grab the strap and wack the winch handle a couple times to tighten strap.

I remember seeing a remote control winch on one of the web sites,,, not cheap.. 500? Or so.
That and a telescopic boat hook to grab the strap would be slick,,,
