Can't help with the trailer but the Rosbourough site may have that info for you.
  As to the windlass-we have the Lewmar V700 on our RF246 and works just fine with 50' of chain and 200' of line.
  Good luck and Merry Christmas.

Happy Holidays To All!!!!

Have found Shorelander Trailers  expensive.  There are many, many manufacturers out there.  One shop set ups and manufacturers with dealer networks.  If your not in a hurry take the time to shop around.  Have found pricing can vary widely on identical trailers (apples to apples).  Four digits if you can believe that.

We have a Maxwell Freedom  500 windless on our boat.  It works very well.  This particular model has been recommended in past reviews by various boating publications.  It's a good looking piece with a low profile.

Good luck.
