Expert Reply:

If your personal watercraft and trailer weighs less than 2,000 lbs and the tongue weight of the trailer weighs less than 200 lbs you could use a Class I hitch.

For your 2008 Honda CR-V I would recommend you get a Class III hitch like the Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch # 87440, as this hitch has higher towing capacities so it could tow your PWC trailer and if you decide to pull a heavier trailer down the road you would be able to that as well.

The Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver, part #75547, uses 4 hex bolts that are M10 X 1.25 X 30. However, you shouldn't tap the threads uness you absolutely have to as a last resort. I highly recommend cleaning them before tapping them.…
