    Pulling a basket up a hill at a lake

    I need help with what size motor and load restrictions to pull upto 500 lbs. something that would have forward reverse and variable speeds. It would be between 125 and 150 ft depending on lake level.

    Welcome to EE!

    This video should help you to calculate the force required - from there you can determine mechanism and motor size.
