Expert Reply:
In general you only need 50 percent of the total boat trailer weight as winch capacity, but if there are longer winch lengths with wooden bunks you'd need to match the capacity of the winch with the boat. So based on that the Dutton Lainson part # DL15440 that you referenced would be an excellent choice. This has a 3,200 lb capacity which would work well for your boat's weight. Then for a strap we have the part # DL24250 which is 25 feet long, fits this winch, and has more than enough capacity as well.
