I think that should be fine. I seem to remember another post similar to this but I couldn't find it right off hand.

A/S OEM trailers are designed as "drive-on" trailers and the winch is there just to hold the boat in place, not to winch it up, 1800# is fine. (In the '60 & '70s none of the Correct Craft trailers even came with winches)
