Winch Boat Trailer

Is it ok to keep my 16.5 ft. boat suspended above water using the d rings on back & front?

I have a 1995 Kenner open fishing boat v bottom & center console with 90 hp Suzuki. At the dock where I am keeping the boat they want to keep it suspended out of the water at all times. The boat slip is set up with a hoist that is good up to about 7700 lbs. Thanks to my answer from Seattles I think my dry weight is about 1200 lbs plus 341 for the motor and plus fuel, 2 anchors, etc.
What I would like to know is the stress on the d-rings – 2 in the back and the one up front (not a lifting ring on the bow) I use this ring when I winch the boat out of the water on to the trailer.
At one of the marina’s they used these same 3 rings for lifting my boat out in and out of the water from dry storage but never continuous weight hanging.
Will these rings hold this or should I have reinforcement plates and larger rings?
Thanks,
Josey

Those are used for tying the boat to the side of the pier,or winching it on to a trailer.They are not designed to hold the entire weight of the boat.It would be better to either trailer it or put slings under the hull with a chain hoist or hydraulic lift mechanism.
