Pretty much any 3000lb load rated winch will handle it. A Powerwinch 712 will easily handle it. Don't forget that when you're loading the boat back on your trailer your fuel, ice, water, beer and other things will be less than when you launched. And if you have to, you can always double your cable to increase your pulling capacity. Buy a good one and you'll never regret the extra money you spent. Dutton-Lamison Strongarm is a great winch also. Expensive, but great.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
