A 666 with some weights will handle your boat on a ramp better than any heavy duty pickup - refresh the brakes and DON'T let the brakes get wet.
The older TA would allow it to freewheel but the 2nd gen TA did not. If it will not free wheel there is no way that a hill will tear it up.

If it starts to free wheel and gain speed use the brakes to slow down and stop then Put in TA high and don't use TA low going down hill, forward or reverse.
People did tear out TA's trying to use them as a brake going down hill with a load on behind.
