Patterson unveiled its new 40ft YoYo Winch for the tank barge market at the International WorkBoat Show 2011, showing how it can help barge operators save millions. The 40ft YoYo Winch was also recently featured in the Waterways Journal Workboat Show Issue 2011.
Nothing beats the YoYo.
Back in the day, the ratchet was the only choice for making barge connections. Then came the winch. Now, there’s a whole new technology, designed to make your connections safer, faster, easier—the patented Patterson YoYo Winch.
Advanced features—with a focus on safety
The YoYo is completely different from anything else on the market. Its single- stacking design eliminates springcoil, fouling, and uncontrolled spooling, and it’s up to 50% faster than ratchets. Operation is simple and safe, with a patented double-dog design that allows easy maximum line tensioning. And the YoYo’s contained springcoil eliminates injuries due to rope memory.
Lifetime value: it pays for itself!
This advanced technology saves barge operators so much time and cost that, in most cases, it pays for itself. Don’t believe it? Use our ROI Calculator to find out just how the YoYo can benefit your bottom line. The lifetime value of this winch will surprise you.
