The boat dry weight is 2000 lbs. and with gear, motor and trailer, you might as well put it at about 3000 lbs. Trailer ball size is 2 inch. You have seen my posts and I know this boat all too well.

In my opinion I would not tow a trailer of the size we are discussing with Fiat 500l. Sure it will roll forward, but towing SAFELY is not as easy as everyone thinks. You need a vehicle that can control the towed trailer. When you do this stuff, think of the others using the road please. Just saying!
There are many things that always need to be thought out at first. However, the 23.5 sits low and not high on the trailer which is an important factor not to swaying as the center of gravity is low. If the trailer has brakes and/or brakes can be added to that axle, even better. There is also speed as well. I have pulled a Hunter 36 on a hydraulic trailer behind a pick up but again I went slow and had brakes using caution as always. Therefore, there are always many factors to consider but one is adding distance to acceleration and braking particular if there are no brakes on the trailer.
