I have been towing my 12 ft alum boat with my ford explorer 4.o litre, just picked up a 15ft trihull will my trailer ball on my explorer Bumper be able to handle it ?? thanks all.
I towed a 16 Lowe CRAMMED full for a week vacation with the wife & kid & the HONDA car crammed full. 1974 shoe box car. Did dozens of 330 mile trips with no problems.
Bumper is rated at 200 LBS tongue weight, and you need to keep between 8-10% of your trailer weight on the ball. Should be good to 2k lbs or therabouts. Bumpers are not rated for much unless it's a class 3 bumper hitch like this
