The best option we have for your application is the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Trailer Winch # TW4015. This has a 1,500 lb capacity rating, a cable, free-spooling drum, and a remote. The remote is wired, but it does allow you to move up to 10 feet away from the winch so you can guide your boat. I've attached a review video to help with some of the specific details as well as a help article for getting the winch wired for use.
