2800(pounds) isn't going to cut it. I had a Load Rite RS-193100RT. Rollers,no brakes. Boat fit right. The trailer guy said it met the minimum for the boat weight. Only used for short trip twice a year to launch & recover for season.
As for brakes. depends on state regs. For a short haul twice a year they are more trouble than help. Because they don't get used enough they will be locked up every spring and fall unless you disassemble them ...they suck.... been there...
Brakes that lock up are more dangerous than none on a rig that is light enough to go without them. Your boat is 2000, motor 400-500, gas 300, batteries andgear puts you right at 3100
