Default Re: Is a V6 4runner enough to pull a 20 foot seacraft?

I used to pull my Seafari with a '95 4Runner 3.0 V6, no problem. I pulled it to the Keys and back several times, a round trip of 994 miles each time.

However, I agree that pulling it isn't the problem, stopping it is. Make sure you've got working brakes on your trailer whenever the tow is more than 50% of the tractoring vehicle's weight.
