I don't know what the rated towing capacity for a Grand Caravan is but I know for a fact that my friend Rick put many miles on his 90 pulling a 17 foot utility/car trailer hauling his '25 Model T Delivery with no problem at all. He would just leave the OD off and take it easy.........I can't imagine your boat weighs that much...........DOes it?
