Any issues with the block and tackle mounted on the T-top? We're also in a 23' Seacraft and have pulled a couple through the transom next to the motor but figured we'll be towing anything over 300 lbs.

We tied a rope off to the opposite side of the chain fall down to a cleat beside the console. We plan on using a ratchet strap next time. We noticed that if the sling was shorter, the tuna would have gone higher. Possibly making it easier to swing the tail over the side. Food for thought.

If I had better shoes on, I would have been more help pulling the tuna over the rail.


Thanks everyone!!!

Can't wait for the next one!!!
