Many factors to consider, I used to pull this with a Mountaineer:

National Liquidators - 1997 Sea Ray 250 Sundancer, 25 ft. - National Liquidators


The thing is it was only twice a year going in and coming out, it was never fun and even though the Mercury was rated to pull more it had all it could do to pull it up a hill. A bow rider is pretty light, I'd recommend towing it empty of gas and then fuel it close to the launch. Get a trailer spare tire and mount it on the trailer. Make sure you always have the O/D button off if equipped or you will stress the tranny. If you take your time you should be just fine, you may want to add some blind spot mirrors to the side mirrors, those little stick on units aren't bad, enjoy the boating!

PS A dual axle trailer will pull and turn easier but may be overkill for a bow rider.
