I'm assuming that your 245 is equipped with the auto trans. I'd reccomend installing an auxiliary transmission cooler. I don't see any problem towing the boat that you described. Most of the people that I know who have had towing problems were towing with a manual gearbox. I don't know any who have had any problems towing with the 200 with the auto.
