questions about rear end gearing

I am going to restore a 1947 3/4 ton chevy with 4.57 rear end. Am considering changing to 3.98 rear with original transmission for added speed on highway. If I make this change will the truck still be able to pull a large boat or trailer? Do not need to pull over 55 mph but still would like to have some usability. Any advise.
