Winch Capacity

While it is not possible to determine an exact winch capacity needed, a common rule of tumb is to use 1/2 the boats weight. This is affected by factors such as the condition of the trailer, alignment of the rollers/slides and incline of the Boat ramp. If the trailer is in excellent condition and the other factos are in your favour, at a stretch, it may be possible to go to 1/3 of the boats weight as capacity of the winch. As always with such equipment it is best to play it safe and to take the specifics of the task into account instead of just using a general formula.
