Why is winch-out different in the San Patricio Ring?

What is winch-out like in Aransas Pass, TX?
SH-361, the ferry queue, the causeway through Stedman and Harbor Island, and Conn Brown Harbor are the landmarks here.
Aransas Pass is where SH-35 from Sinton and Portland meets SH-361 toward the Port Aransas ferry. When the ferry queue backs up, traffic stacks on SH-361 through town and west toward Ingleside. If you are in that queue or on the causeway through Stedman Island and Harbor Island, say which, and whether you have any shoulder. Conn Brown Harbor is the working waterfront. Boat-trailer problems in that lot, or a truck that cannot pull a loaded bay boat up the ramp, need the ramp or lot named.

What is winching, and how is it different from a tow?
Winching is pulling a vehicle back onto solid ground with a cable and drum, rather than lifting and hauling it. A tow moves your car somewhere else. Winching a car just gets it unstuck where it sits, so if it drives fine once it is out, that is the whole job and there is no tow to pay for.
Does a tow truck have a winch on it?
The recovery trucks used for this work do. A tow truck with a winch runs an integrated drum and steel cable rated for the vehicle's weight, plus snatch blocks and straps for angled pulls. That is not the same as a strap on a bumper, which is how bumpers and frame rails get bent.
