    I don't have a Boatmate trailer, But I took off the small wheel Bulldog winch and put a Fulton 6in wheel model... Works better for me.

    Fulton F2 won't go on a Boatmate, I already tried that one

    I cut off the bulldog bracket and welded it on to the Fulton2 jack … I have a CustomLine trailer though.

    Yea, I'm talking about the winch. The way the that triangle bracket going up to the bow roller is fully enclosed, the F2 winch wont go on there. I'm sure it would with modification

    I have a Customline which has the same enclosed triangle so you can't use the F2. I installed a Fulton XLT on mine. This is the one I ordered. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06WRTGLHG

    I've bought a lot from the Basscat store through the years, especially for my trailer. They have a good selection of what you need and their service is great.
