Default Launching off a trailer with an overhead winch

Hi,

I just bought a Catalina 22 swing keel. There are no moorings left,
but I can dry sail it out of the local club. They have a two ton
electric winch which should be more than enough.

Many class boats drysail out of the club, but the all are open cockpit
with lifting rings. inside.

Would it be practical to lauch the Catalina 22 swing keel off the
trailer using a canvas bridal that goes around the hull?

Thanks,

MikeC

Yup.
