Towing Your Boat. I needed a boat trailer 'cause I'm way too lazy to assemble and break down my Portabote (12', 100 lbs). My fix:

The U-Haul hitch #29132, $250 installed. Clears the DTH dual center exhaust IF you use the U-Haul LONG ball mount. U-Haul wired my smart for the trailer for $40. If U-Haul installs their state of the art female wiring terminal (with led lights to check whether you trailer light wiring is functioning as it should), you will need their 3' wiring adapter, $5.00, to match your trailer's flat male terminal. This hitch has a 1 1/4" receiver.
The ball mount takes an 1 7/8" ball, with a 3/4" shaft.

Haul-Master Boat Trailer with 8" Wheels and Tires, sold by Harbor Freight (Item 5002-6VGA, $329). You may have to "special order" it--if so, let the store order it and you'll pay no shipping..You get to assemble it. The U-Haul LONG ball mount has a 3 3/4" rise, which will be about right for your trailer tongue. The trailer is rated for an 800 lb. load.

Fair winds and following seas.

See my reply on "Towing with a Smart" Uhaul hitch is way too expensive.
