How heavy a sailboat could I realistically tow with a 245? 200

There seem to be mixed thought on towing with a 240. You will not have any issues but you should add a transmission cooler. That would be a smart thing weather you tow or not. I have never towed anything with my 244 any have a 19,000 GVW stack plate cooler on it. On my 245 I have a factory hitch no cooler yet but have a Factory 740 Turbo transmission cooler that is going on it & I'm going to tow a car trailer. Don't know the GVW rating of the factory cooler but it is much less than the B&M Cooler on my 245. Add the cooler and tow away. Greg
