A boom assembly includes a boom housing having a longitudinal, internal cavity. A telescoping boom moves in an axial direction relative to the boom housing and has a first end positioned within the longitudinal, internal cavity and a second end positioned outside the longitudinal, internal cavity. A winch assembly moves with the movement of the telescoping boom. A winch cable extends from the winch assembly and is guided by a pulley. A portion of the winch cable extends over the pulley in an outward direction from the pulley. The extending portion of the winch cable has a length, and the length of the extending portion of the winch cable remains the same regardless of the axial movement of the telescoping boom relative to the boom housing.
