Re: Towing Capacity Necessary for 2021 190 Montauk
I tow my 20013 190 Nantucket with a 2016 Honda Pilot which has a 5000 lb.max tow rating. Total boat, motor, trailer weight is about the same as your boat. The Pilot tows fine but I live on the Alabama coast which is flat. Hilly terrain may make a difference.
