My towing experience has been limited to larger boats: 20' runabout and 24' cabin cruiser so we've always used a truck or suv for hauling. Based on my own experiences at boat ramps in PA, NJ, and MD, I wouldn't feel comfortable hauling anything more than a dinghy or single waverunner behind my 9-5.
My feeling is that if the condition of the ramp is anything less than ideal, and I've seen some pretty bad ramps, you will be sitting there spinning your tires. What kind of boat do you have? I can't visualize what you will be pulling.
Fortunately, the only boat I haul with my 9-5 is the Emotion kayak on the roof.
