If you're a married man...I don't know if you should be out "wenching" at all.

Main Entry: 1wench
Pronunciation: \ˈwench\
Function: noun
Date: 14th century
1 a: a young woman : girl b: a female servant
2: a lewd woman : prostitute



But... when I am "winching" I set my hand throttle at 1200-1500 rpm. I run a 100 amp. alternator and have dual batteries. So, your needs may vary.

2000 rpm sounds a tad high to me.
