I think rollers are better for shorter lighter boats.
if my boat was any heavier I would get an electric winch.

And to Buzz's comment about powering on, I would disagree. I come in at a high idle. if there is someone there, they can clip me on and take up slack before I roll back down. it is maybe 3 seconds of a high idle. can't be done solo.

The guys that I see powering on are guys with bunks trying to power assist because they can't get their boats floated all the way on........ full blast, white water rooster tail.

i bent my wookie
