The Dutton-Lainson StrongArm 12-Volt DC Electric Winch with Remote # DL25220 is an excellent option for your 2,500 lb boat. The 3,000 lb weight rating is for rolling loads, but this can actually handle up to a 9,000 lb boat, and since you have rollers on your trailer it will just make it that much easier on the winch.

To mount this you can either use the mounting plate # DL24059, or the mounting plate # DL24055 depending on what you already have on your setup.
