+1 I pull my 17' open bow with my 2003 4runner 4.0 liter it pulls it just fine and launches fine. wet weight of 2850 lbs I filled it up and took it to the dump and weighed it on the scale. The whipping action that some people have with there boats is not enough 
weight and to much weight behind the trailers tires. Find a boat with a good trailer and you wont have that problem no matter how much your taxing your tow vehicle with your trailer.But the bottoming out on every little bump will drive you crazy.
I would go with an aluminum boat in the 16' foot range to tow behind that, you only have a 4 cylinder in that right?
just my opinion.
