anchor winch with box anchor?

I've been running the box anchor for a couple months now and I love it. Never going back to a mushroom anchor, sho nuff!

But my Bennington has the filler seat that covers up the bow gate. Its a PITA to set or retrieve the anchor. I was wondering how you all think an anchor winch would do with a box anchor. I was looking at the TRAC pontoon anchor winch. It's designed to be used with a mushroom and it "self-stores" the anchor when its fully retracted.

I know it wont "self-store" the box anchor like a mushroom one, but I was wondering if it would hold the anchor up well enough. Anyone using a winch with a box anchor?
