Due to it's excellent 5 year warranty and its 2 year complimentary roadside assistance, I'd recommend the Lionshead # LHWL101. This is a 175/80-13 Load Range C radial trailer tire which has a 1360 lb per tire/2720 lb per axle which should cover the combined weight of your air boat and trailer with no problem. The tire carries a 75 mph speed rating.

If you'd like something with a higher speed rating, go with the Taskmaster Provider # TTWTRTM1758013C which provides an identical weight rating and an 81 mph speed rating. The tire is covered by a 2 year limited warranty and doesn't offer roadside assistance.

I've linked to product description videos for the tires mentioned above.
