Seems like kind of a big boat to tow behind a smallish car. Don't know if I'd be comfortable with that set up.

I was looking at a patriot recently, Rated to 1500kgs in Europe and 1000lb (450kg) in the US.

It's on a single axle so it won't be that bad.

If his limit is 1800, I'd guess he's over the limit. The trailer itself, engine,Twin batteries, possibly full tanks, gear, anchor, chain, oil, etc etc it all adds up!
It'll pull it, just wouldn't be legal.
