Question:
Do you sell an adapter to power an electric boat winch through the 7 pin plug on a 2022 tahoe? I will buy both the winch and adapter from you if you do.

Hey Jeff, that's not available because typically winches like the Dutton Lainson StrongArm part # DL25200 that you referenced draw too much amperage for a 7-way to keep up so that is why they make winch wiring kits like the # BDW20026 which have a heavier gauge wire setup.
