Prawn Puller Plans

[Whole in the Water]

Does anyone out there have any actual plans or blueprints for a prawn puller?
I have seen pictures of homemade version but I would like to get some actual plans that I can give to my father-in-law (who is a welder) so he can build me one. Thanks for replies with plans.

Hey Larry, good luck getting plans but here's the link to blue's puller. There is plenty of explanation of what you need and a link on page 3 that shows some photos to go off of.

Here are the notes for the one I made (based on input from others on the board). You can measure an ACE in any of the marine stores for the basic bracket plans.

I've probably run over 75,000 feet of line through my hauler with no issues so far. Just watch the gear ratio on the higher weight rated winches or you are going to be pulling very slowly if you go direct drive. I liked the lower wieght winch direct drive option as it meant I didn't have to start playing with setting up gearing.

Good luck!!!
