The present disclosure is directed to a winch assembly that includes a power drive with a motor component. The motor component of the power drive rotates a member within the winch assembly and the rotation of that member is translated to a rotation component (e.g., a spool, a drum, etc.) of the winch assembly to wind up a line, a cord, a rope, a chain, or some other type of line that can be wound up by the winch assembly. The power drive further includes a casing that surrounds and encases the motor component. In some embodiments, the casing of the power drive may be fully encased within the rotation component of the winch assembly. In some embodiments, the casing of the power drive may be partially inset the rotation component. In some embodiments, the casing of the power drive may be external to the rotation component. The motor component is an electric motor that an operator or user can select parameters desired for operation of the winch assembly depending on the situation of use for the winch assembly.
